In this episode, Dr. Ralph P. Tufano discusses the innovative non-thermal treatment for thyroid nodules known as Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA). This technique offers a safe and effective alternative to traditional thermal ablation methods, focusing on preserving healthy thyroid tissue while effectively reducing the size of benign nodules. The conversation covers the mechanism of action, patient selection criteria, efficacy, and the overall patient experience during and after the procedure. Dr. Tufano emphasizes the importance of patient advocacy and the need for ongoing research in this evolving field of thyroid care.
