Description

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive medical procedure that uses radiofrequency energy (a form of electrical energy) to treat a variety of conditions by heating targeted tissues. It’s commonly used in different medical fields, such as pain management, cardiology, dermatology, and even to treat certain tumors. The goal of RFA is to either shrink, destroy, or alter tissue to relieve symptoms or correct a medical issue.
