Advanced Radiofrequency Ablation at Yashoda Hospitals.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA), or radiofrequency neurotomy, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radio waves to heat and destroy nerve tissue, blocking pain signals to the brain. It is commonly used for chronic pain in the neck, lower back, arthritic joints, and conditions like trigeminal neuralgia, cancer pain, and peripheral nerve pain. RFA helps reduce pain, improve function, minimize the need for pain medication, and delay or avoid surgery. It can also treat heart rhythm issues and tumors.
We at Yashoda Hospitals offer advanced ablation procedures with personalized care and modern technologies. Our expert team ensures precision and personalized care, using cutting-edge technology to deliver effective, safe, and affordable treatment.

Who needs Radio Frequency Ablation?
- When an individual has persistent joint, neck, or pain that does not improve with medicine or physical therapy.
- An individual with benign tumors, or multiple tumors, where surgery isn’t an option.
- An individual with chronic venous insufficiency in the legs.
- An individual with trigeminal neuralgia, where the use of medications didn’t work.
- An individual with arrhythmias when drugs are ineffective in treating atrial fibrillation.
Types of RadioFrequency Ablation Procedures:
Radiofrequency Ablation is classified into three different types as follows:
Pulse Radiofrequency Ablation:
In contrast to corticosteroid injections, which are used to treat a variety of symptoms, this method has no significant adverse effects. By using a radiofrequency probe to provide electrical stimulation, the pulsed radiofrequency technique reduces pain without causing actual damage to the targeted tissue because the temperature of the targeted tissue does not rise above 42°C.
Water-Cooled Radiofrequency Ablation:
The traditional radiofrequency ablation (tRFA) method typically involves heating the targeted tissue to temperatures ranging from 80°C to 90°C for about 90 seconds, leading to complete tissue destruction or burning. In contrast, cooled radiofrequency ablation maintains lower temperatures at the tissue tip interface by circulating cool water through the probe tip. This approach enhances the ability to ablate specific tissue by creating larger spherical lesions compared to those produced by the standard RF procedure.
Cryoneurolysis:
Cryoneurolysis is a minimally invasive procedure aimed at temporarily blocking nerve conduction to alleviate pain. It is performed with local anesthesia and imaging guidance by an interventional radiologist.
Factors that affect RF Ablation Cost:
Various factors are associated with RF ablation cost, which include as following:
- Type of RF procedure.
- Type of Hospital & Location (Urban/Rural/Semi-Urban).
- Insurance coverage.
- Team of doctors involved in the procedure.
Make an informed decision about the cost of radiofrequency ablation in India.
The cost of RF ablation can depend on various factors such as type of hospital, insurance, type of RFA procedure, etc.; however, choosing the right hospital that ensures cost-effective, top-notch therapy with modern technology & comprehensive care is a way to quick recovery & a healthy journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About Radiofrequency Ablation
Does radiofrequency ablation require hospitalization?
The majority of patients receiving radiofrequency ablation can manage to return home the same day of treatment and resume their regular activities within 24 hours, while very few need to stay overnight at the hospital.
How long does RF ablation last?
While individual outcomes may differ, RFA’s effectiveness can range from three to twelve months. The nerve will typically heal in time, but occasionally the discomfort will return and the therapy must be repeated.
How successful is RF ablation?
Radiofrequency ablation has shown a 70–80% success rate in patients who have had effective nerve blocks.
Can RFA be repeated?
Yes, radiofrequency ablation can be repeated in individuals with a recurrence of pain.
