What are the advantages of ablation
Ablation is a wonderful method for a quick and safe treatment of benign thyroid nodules without surgery.
The primary advantage of ablation is that the healthy tissue of the thyroid remains undamaged. This means that the function of the gland is preserved and the need for medication is reduced.
Another advantage is that this method does not leave any scars, as both RFA and MWA electrode are the size of a thin needle.
Apart from this, ablation is performed under local anesthesia and there is no need to spend the night in the hospital. The patient is discharged from the hospital after an hour and they can go back to their normal life.
Clinical trials have shown the effectiveness of ablation in reducing the volume of the nodule, eliminating the oppressive symptoms and the cosmetic defect.
