What is radiofrequency dissolution?
Radiofrequency dissolution is a method of inserting a needle that generates radiofrequency into the center of the uterine fibroid or adenomyosis and treating the fibroid through radiofrequency heat (approximately 250°C) emitted from the tip of the needle. It is the most effective method because it combines minimal incision and radiofrequency. It is an effective and widely used treatment.
