Radiofrequency Ablation for Thyroid Nodules (RATED Study)—Analysis of a Learning Curve and Predictors of Success
In RFA for thyroid nodules, a stable treatment efficacy is achieved after 20 treatments, with a median VRR of 70.8%. Baseline nodule volume, energy delivered, and prolonged follow-up 6 months after treatment may not be clinically relevant to predict treatment success.
