This session will explore the evolving role of thermal ablation techniques in managing benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Advancements in minimally invasive technologies continue to reshape treatment paradigms, thermal ablation offers an effective alternative to traditional surgical approaches. This session delves into the mechanisms of thermal ablation, including radiofrequency and microwave techniques, their application, clinical efficacy, and safety profiles. Focus is on the indications for thermal ablation in benign conditions, such as symptomatic thyroid nodules, and its emerging application in select cases of thyroid cancer, particularly low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma.
