Irreversible electroporation isn’t that new, it’s being actively used (i.e. not trials) for liver, lung, pancreas and kidney cancers for a few years now.
We use it quite a bit in radiology. Usually faster / easier to use thermal ablation (microwave or cryo these days, used to be radiofrequency more often) but there are cases where it’s not feasible due to heat sinking or other reasons and IRE is an alternative.
