Microwave Ablation Treatment FAQ's

Microwave ablation works by delivering high-frequency microwave energy to the affected area. This energy heats up the cells and tissues, causing them to die off. The procedure is performed using a thin needle that is inserted through the skin and into the affected area. The needle is guided by ultrasound or other imaging techniques, allowing the physician to target the precise location of the abnormal cells. The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to complete, and patients can go home the same day. There is little to no pain associated with the procedure, and patients can resume their normal activities within a few days.

Microwave ablation has several benefits over traditional surgical procedures. Firstly, it is
less invasive, meaning that it does not require large incisions and can be performed using only local anesthesia. This reduces the risk of complications and shortens the recovery time. Secondly, the procedure is highly effective, with success rates of over 90%
