Radiofrequency Ablation of Leiomyomas
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2023Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of leiomyomas represents a significant advancement in the treatment of this common uterine condition. In the appropriately selected patient, both laparoscopic and transcervical options provide effective treatment for bleeding and bulk symptoms in a uterine-sparing manner.

Types of Radiofrequency Ablation-Pulsed Radiofrequency Ablation
2021Continuous radiofrequency (CRF) ablation has been utilized in the treatment of chronic pain since 1974. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) emerged as a way to treat pain generators without the destructive effects associated with CRF. While the complete mechanism of action of PRF is not understood, the proposed mechanisms are the induction of long-term ...

Update on Radiofrequency Ablation
Perspectives in Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, 2009The two currently available methods to achieve ablation of incompetent veins using radiofrequency energy are radiofrequency ablation (VNUS Closure Plus(tm)) and radiofrequency powered segmental ablation (VNUS Closure Fast(tm)). Both treatment modalities expose vascular endothelium to high-frequency alternating current.

Biophysics of Radiofrequency Ablation
Critical Reviews™ in Biomedical Engineering, 2010Radiofrequency (RF) ablation is a treatment modality that kills unwanted tissue by heat. Starting with cardiac arrhythmia treatment in the 1980s, RF ablation has found clinical application in a number of diseases, and is now the treatment of choice for certain types of cardiac arrhythmia and certain cancers. During RF ablation, an electrode is inserted

Bipolar Radiofrequency Ablation of the Kidney: Comparison with Monopolar Radiofrequency Ablation
Journal of Endourology, 2003We report initial ex vivo and in vivo studies using bipolar radiofrequency (RF) ablation of porcine kidneys. An internal ground electrode is positioned in the kidney opposite the RF electrode, resulting in ablation of all the intervening renal tissue.Ex vivo preparations of 10 porcine kidneys were perfused continuously with Ringer's solution and ...
