Radiofrequency Ablation for Barrett’s Esophagus
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for Barrett’s esophagus is an advanced minimally invasive treatment designed to destroy precancerous tissue in the esophagus. Barrett’s esophagus is a condition in which the normal lining of the esophagus is replaced by abnormal cells due to chronic acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). At Valiant Clinic, our expert gastroenterologists use state-of-the-art RFA technology to remove abnormal tissue and significantly reduce the risk of esophageal cancer.

How It Works
How Radiofrequency Ablation for Barrett’s Esophagus Works
Radiofrequency ablation utilizes controlled heat energy to target and eliminate precancerous cells in the esophageal lining while preserving healthy tissue. The procedure is performed using an endoscope equipped with an RFA catheter, ensuring precision and safety.
Pre-Procedure Evaluation
Patients undergo diagnostic tests, including endoscopy and biopsy, to confirm the presence of Barrett’s esophagus and assess the severity of abnormal cell growth, ensuring the procedure is appropriate.
Endoscopic RFA Application
A specialized catheter is inserted through an endoscope, delivering controlled radiofrequency energy to the affected tissue. This precise application targets and ablates the abnormal cells while sparing healthy tissue.
Healing & Regeneration
The treated area naturally regenerates over time with a healthy esophageal lining, allowing for recovery and restoration of normal tissue.
Post-Treatment Follow-Up
Patients undergo regular endoscopic surveillance to ensure successful healing, monitor the treated area for any recurrence, and maintain ongoing esophageal health.
