Ninety-four biopsy proven renal tumors (size 8 to 65 mm) in 80 patients were treated with percutaneous RFA. Mean patient age was 67.8 years (range 37 to 90 years). The percutaneous ablation was carried out under US/CT guidance in all patients. Seven of 94 tumors were T1b staged (mean ...
The principle of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the induction of thermal injury to the target tissue through the use of electromagnetic energy. In monopolar RFA, the patient is part of a closed-loop circuit that includes an radiofrequency (RF) generator, an electrode needle, and a large dis...
Radiofrequency ablation (or RFA) is a procedure that can easechronic painfor some people. The procedure uses radio waves that produce electrical currents. These currents heat and kill a small, targeted area of nerve tissue, preventing pain signals from going to your brain. The procedure only af...
As an alternative to standard surgical resection for the treatment of malignant tumors, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has rapidly evolved into the most popular minimally invasive therapy. To help readers gain the relevant background knowledge and to better understand the other reviews in this Feature...
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a proven means of interrupting pain signals, such as those coming from irritated facet joints in the spine, genicular nervesin the knee, and femoral and obturator nerves in the hip. RFA is designed to provide long-lasting pain relief1,2,3 ...
The Ainsworth Institute is unique in that we offer all three types of Radiofrequency Ablation and are one of only a handful of practices in the Tri-State area offering the groundbreaking Cooled RF technology. RFA has been used to treat pain since the 1970’s.[2] The pain relief from RFA...
