<p>From the reviews: <p> Percutaneous Tumor Ablation is a new volume in the series Medical Radiology: Diagnostic Imaging and Radiation Oncology published by Springer Verlag. The book aims to help radiologists improve their skills in percutaneous image guided ablation techniques. The illustrative material is in general excellent, with well chosen examples of treatment efficacy. Overall this book provides a useful resource and will probably be used mostly as a starting point for finding out more about individual treatment techniques. (Dr Gail ter Haar, RAD Magazine, October, 2008) Dr Thomas Vogl and a group of authors, principally from Germany, have banded together to produce a useful book that reviews a wide variety of techniques not only for the treatment of hepatic tumors, but also for many benign and malignant lesions throughout the body. We have no difficulty recommending this readable and interesting volume to those involved in percutaneous ablation therapies. Radiology fellow
