ModìLiteTM: Micro-invasive Laser Thermal Ablation (LTA) treatment for the management of Benign Thyroid Nodules (BTNs)

WEBINAR  February 6, 2021

9:30-11:00 A.M., E.T.

DESCRIPTION

Nodular thyroid disease represents a frequent pathology which requires the involvement of multiple professionals for its proper care. The correct management of the patient with a Benign Thyroid Nodule (BTN) therefore requires a multidisciplinary approach, which starts from a correct diagnosis, often based on ultrasound, followed by a treatment which must be effective, as minimally invasive as possible, and proposed taking into consideration the different and multiple needs of patients. In this scenario, ultrasound-guided thermal ablation treatments are playing an increasingly important role in the multidisciplinary management of patients with benign nodular thyroid disease, and are increasingly offered as a first therapeutic option. During this webinar, ModìLite micro-invasive procedure for the percutaneous laser thermal ablation treatment of BTNs will be presented, with particular attention to the indications, the results reported in the literature and possible future applications.
