A friend with pancreas & liver cancer early stage heard about cancer therapy in Lebanon by freezing cancer cells. Is it effective? Any advice?

Cryotherapy (kill cells by Hypothermia) heattherapy (by hyperthermia) or radiofrequency, are three different techniques acting locally on the tumor. Their indication and efficacy are the same as the surgery. If your friend's medical decision was to be surgically resected, so this technique could be a painless alternative compared to surgery.
