Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for Thyroid Nodules in Port St. Lucie & Treasure Coast — Meet the Expert
What is Thyroid RFA?
Radiofrequency Ablation is a non-surgical procedure that uses thermal energy to shrink benign thyroid nodules. A thin electrode, guided by ultrasound, delivers precise heat to the targeted tissue. Over time, the treated nodule breaks down naturally and is absorbed by the body.
Who is a Candidate for RFA?
RFA is recommended for patients with benign thyroid nodules that:
- Cause trouble swallowing or breathing
- Appear as visible lumps in the neck
- Lead to voice changes or hoarseness
- Are cosmetically bothersome
Benefits of Thyroid RFA
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) offers a modern solution for treating benign thyroid nodules without the need for invasive surgery. It combines precision, safety, and convenience—making it an increasingly preferred option by both patients and physicians.
- Minimally-invasive, no general anesthesia
- Performed under local anesthesia
