Scope and Contents

Contents

RFA devices deliver an alternating electric current directly to the tumor through a radiofrequency (RF) probe. Because tissue does not conduct electricity efficiently, frictional agitation of ions in surrounding cells generates heat as they follow the changing polarity of the alternating electrical field. [...]class III devices are the highest risk...
