Thyroid RFA Now Offered By Dr. Sean Nikravan in Newport Beach, California One of the more common health concerns is issues with thyroid nodules. In their lifetimes, an eye-opening 75% of people can develop thyroid nodules, which has created a great demand for having them removed. In exciting news, Newport Beach, California-based well-respected board-certified Endocrinologist and Internal Medicine specialist Dr, Sean Nikravan has announced he is now performing a non-surgical treatment for thyroid nodules - Thyroid Radiofrequency Ablation. "One of the very first benefits is that you don't require general surgery. You don't need to be intubated, you don't need general anesthesia, there is no scar site, and you do not lose your thyroid gland, and last but not least, you do not need to take thyroid hormones to sustain life. 'It is a minimally invasive procedure that is done in the office and lasts less than an hour." According to Dr. Nikravan. Thyroid RFA is a minimally invasive procedure that is navigated with ultrasound, bringing a special electrode that is then used to transmit radio frequency waves into the thyroid nodule. The RFA technology is only used to treat thyroid nodules that are non-cancerous, which means completely removing them is not necessary. Patients who are most appropriate for the Thyroid RFA treatment include those with large non-cancerous nodules that are causing a negative impact on a person's voice and/or breathing. For now, Thyroid RFA is only offered for those with benign tumors. The results from Thyroid RFA treatments with Dr. Nikravan have been phenomenal. Contact Us At: https://seannikravanmd.com/
