Summary
This study tested a procedure called endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) to relieve severe pain in 19 people with advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The treatment uses heat to target nerves that carry pain signals, aiming to reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers. Researchers measured changes in pain levels and quality of life over time.
