Phase:
NA
Brief Summary
The primary purpose of this protocol is to assess the ExAblate 2100 MR guided high intensity focused ultrasound device as an intervention for treatment of advanced stage pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Detailed Description
Primary Objective: The primary endpoints for this study will be 1) feasibility of ablation and 2) safety of ablation. Secondary Objective: 1.)Pain reduction after ablation. 2.) Evidence of inflammati...
