Efficacy of echolaser smart interface-guided laser ablation in volume reduction of symptomatic benign thyroid nodules

This study demonstrated a marked progressive reduction of thyroid nodule volume following ablation. The treatment appears to be consistently effective in reducing symptoms across a wide range of nodule sizes, although the degree of volume reduction varies. The results of our study underscore the potential of laser ablation as a viable treatment option for thyroid nodules, with a sustained reduction in nodule volume observed over an extended post-procedure period.

Abstract

This study demonstrated a marked progressive reduction of thyroid nodule volume following ablation. The treatment appears to be consistently effective in reducing symptoms across a wide range of nodule sizes, although the degree of volume reduction varies. The results of our study underscore the potential of laser ablation as a viable treatment option for thyroid nodules, with a sustained reduction in nodule volume observed over an extended post-procedure period.
