Northeast Baptist Hospital Pulmonologists Performing Aliya PEF Ablation Procedure to Remove Tumors

In San Antonio, Texas, pulmonologists at Northeast Baptist Hospital are now performing the Aliya PEF (Pulsed Electric Field) ablation procedure to remove tumors from patients’ lungs using high-voltage, brief electrical pulses to treat targeted cancer cells.

Because the pulses are electrical and do not use heat, the technology helps protect important proteins in cells and the tissues around them. The Aliya PEF can be performed at the same time as diagnostic biopsies.
