Large Thyroid Nodule

Thyroid radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a non-surgical procedure that uses a special probe to heat up the nodule under the visualization of ultrasound. Ultrasound guided RFA is a good alternative to surgery for many health conditions like thyroid nodules, liver cancer, pain management, and other malignancies. Using ultrasound-guidance the small RFA probe is placed into the targeted region. The heating mechanism is turned on and the treatment is monitored using ultrasound imaging to make sure the expected tissues are successfully treated.
