Pilot study of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation for inactivating excess remnant thyroid after surgery in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer
US-guided MWA is a relatively safe and effective method for inactivating excess RT after surgery and represents a potentially innovative minimally invasive approach. The relationship between TSH and follow-up time after MWA for inactivating excess RT reveals a threshold effect, aiding in determining the optimal timing for RAI therapy post-MWA, yet its universal applicability necessitates additional investigation.
