Nonoknife is the popular name for Irreversble Electroporation. Electrodes are applied in predetermined positions and short bursts of electrical currentapplied so as to blow holes through the cancer cells thereby damaging their DNA, hopefully critically. So there is no knife and no radioway with Nanoknife. The Focal Therapist will work with the type of focal treatment s/he is most comfortable with and feels is ppropriate for an individual.
I have added a little to the link Andy gave and here is another. Paul London was/is a strong advocate of the Nanoknife he had. We haven't heard from him for quite a time, so I hope he continues to do well. https://community.prostatecanceruk.org/posts/t28892-Nanoknife---anyone-with-recent-experience
