Comparison of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation, laser ablation, and radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of elderly patients with benign thyroid nodules: A meta-analysis
Background: A new minimally invasive technique, ultrasound-guided thermal ablation has become one of the treatment methods for benign thyroid nodules. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of laser ablation (LA), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatm...
