Microwave ablation (MWA) is a minimally invasive methods use to treat benign and malignant tumors of the liver, lung and kidney.
Nonsurgical and minimally invasive treatments use to treat benign thyroid nodules, of which microwave ablation (MWA) is newly developed.
MWA is based on thermal injury secondary to heat generated from rotation of water molecules and have several advantages in tumor ablation.
Studies of thyroid MWA demonstrate significant volume reductions and improvement of clinical symptoms. MWA can be a minimally invasive technique with great promise for the treatment of benign thyroid nodules.
Benefits of Microwave ablation (MWA)
- Minimally invasive Day Care Procedure

Most thyroid nodules don't cause signs or symptoms. But occasionally some nodules become so large that they can:
- Be felt.
- Be seen, often as a swelling at the base of your neck

- Unexplained weight loss
- Increased sweating
- Tremor
- Nervousness
