Description: Thermal ablation is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure that treats benign or malignant tumors, including thyroid nodules and uterine fibroids (myomas). It involves inserting a thin needle into the affected tissue and using high temperatures to destroy only the dysfunctional area.
Radiofrequency Ablation
One of the main technologies used to perform thermal ablation is radiofrequency ablation (also called RFA). This is an advanced medical application of alternating electric current within the human body, in which a thin needle-like electrode and, capable of transferring the electric current, is inserted inside the tissue to be treated and its activity will have a focused effect only on the dysfunctional area: the electric current transferred locally within the body causes mechanical friction that will in tur
Whether it is a benign solid tumor (such as thyroid nodules, uterine fibroids, etc.), a malignant solid lesion, or any other dysfunctional soft tissue, radiofrequency may be an alternative treatment option to conventional methods that should be considered.
