Radiofrequency ablation

Closure of a varicose vein using radiofrequency heat energy.

How it works

A catheter is placed inside the vein and radiofrequency energy closes the diseased vein.

Before the procedure, medical examination, appropriate imaging and medication review are performed.

Recovery depends on procedure type. Instructions on activity, dressings, compression, medication and follow-up are given by the doctor.
