「愛是突如其來的啟示,吻總是一次發現。」“Love is a sudden revelation, the kiss is always a discovery,” 2026,藝術界明星呂西安·史密斯(Lucien Smith)去世,享年37歲,二十多歲時名噪一時,成為「殭屍形式主義」(Zombie Formalism)的代表人物,隨後卻遠離了畫廊界.....“也許一切都是衍生品,你知道嗎?”他說,“也許我們都只是在過著別人的生活。”。組織碎化超音波(Histotripsy 字源解釋,俗稱「碎化刀」)已在台灣取得衛生福利部食品藥物管理署(TFDA)核准上市,並由台大醫院與台北榮總正式導入臨床應用。

Lucien Smith, Art-World Star Whose Career Abruptly Turned, Dies at 37

A phenom in his 20s, he became the poster child for Zombie Formalism before abandoning the gallery frenzy for Montauk.

藝術界明星呂西安·史密斯(Lucien Smith)去世,享年37歲,其職業生涯曾經歷劇烈轉折。

他曾在二十多歲時名噪一時,成為「殭屍形式主義」(Zombie Formalism)的代表人物,隨後卻遠離了畫廊界的狂熱追捧,轉而隱居蒙托克(Montauk)。

“也許一切都是衍生品,你知道嗎?”他說,“也許我們都只是在過著別人的生活。”

“Maybe everything is derivative, you know?” he said. “Maybe we’re all just living the lives of other people.”

 組織碎化超音波(Histotripsy,俗稱「碎化刀」)已在台灣取得衛生福利部食品藥物管理署(TFDA)核准上市,並由台大醫院與台北榮總正式導入臨床應用。 [1, 2]

治療原理與特色
  • 無創免切口:利用高強度聚焦超音波產生的氣泡效應(Cavitation),以機械力量在體外直接將體內腫瘤震碎並液化,完全不需手術切口、穿刺或放射線。
  • 保護關鍵結構:屬於非熱能消融技術,能避免傳統電燒(RFA)或微波(MWA)產生的熱傷害,完整保留鄰近的大血管與膽管。
  • 快速與恢復快:單次消融時間約10分鐘,術後病人隔天即可出院。 [1, 2, 3, 4]
台灣臨床進展與應用現況
  • 台大醫院:創下全球臨床導入最快紀錄,累積超過80例臨床試驗與治療經驗,並與美商合作成立亞太唯一的「癌症碎化消融訓練中心」。
  • 台北榮民總醫院:獲公益信託捐贈引進設備,規劃打造亞太區組織碎化術無創治療觀摩示範中心。
  • 適應症與收費:目前台灣核准主要應用於肝臟腫瘤(原發性肝癌、膽道癌及肝轉移)。臨床上主要提供自費選擇(單次療程約新台幣50萬元),並積極拓展至胰臟癌、腎臟癌等其他固態腫瘤試驗。 [1, 2, 3, 4]
如果您想進一步了解,請問您希望知道:
  • 哪些具體條件與限制適合評估此治療?
  • 台大醫院或台北榮總的就醫掛號與諮詢管道?



Histotripsy is a non-invasive medical procedure that uses focused sound waves from ultrasound to break down and liquefy diseased soft tissue, such as liver tumors, without surgery. [1, 2, 3]
The word breaks down into two parts: "histo," meaning soft tissue, and "tripsy," meaning breaking down. [1]
How Histotripsy Works
  • Acoustic Cavitation: Focused high-intensity ultrasound pulses pass through the skin to hit a precise target.
  • Bubble Clouds: The sound waves create micro-bubbles inside the targeted tissue that rapidly expand and collapse.
  • Mechanical Destruction: This rapid movement acts like a microscopic mechanical force that tears apart cell walls without using heat, radiation, or chemicals.
  • Natural Cleanup: The body naturally absorbs and flushes out the resulting liquid cell debris over time. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Key Benefits
  • Non-invasive: Requires no cuts, incisions, or needles.
  • No Heat or Radiation: Avoids thermal burns, ionizing radiation, or chemical toxicity.
  • Spares Healthy Tissue: Protects critical nearby structures like blood vessels and bile ducts.
  • Preserves Immune Proteins: Leaves antigens intact, which may help the body's immune system recognize and fight remaining cancer cells. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
