Selection criteria for radiofrequency ablation for colorectal liver metastases in the era of effective systemic therapy: A clinical score based proposal

At present, there are no widely accepted criteria for the use of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) in the context of effective modern-agent therapies. We aimed to define selection criteria for patients with liver-limited CLM who may benefit from adding RFA to systemic therapy with respect to long-term disease control.
