Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
A minimally invasive procedure that uses high-frequency electrical energy to generate heat and destroy abnormal tissue.
An electrode or catheter delivers energy to the target tissue, causing coagulative necrosis, which is then replaced by healthy tissue during healing.
