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 ...
