Frequently Asked Questions

What is a monopolar RF electrode?

A monopolar RF electrode is a device used in thermal ablation procedures. It delivers focused energy to a targeted area to treat conditions in tissues such as the thyroid, liver, or kidney. STARmed’s monopolar RF electrode is designed for precision, efficiency, and safety.

In monopolar systems, a grounding pad (also known as a dispersive electrode) is essential. It’s placed on the patient’s body—typically on the thigh or back—to safely return the electrical current from the electrode, completing the circuit and ensuring the energy is dispersed without harming surrounding tissue. This setup enhances both the safety and effectiveness of the ablation procedure.

The STARmed RF ablation electrode uses radiofrequency energy to create controlled thermal lesions in tissue. Its internal cooling system enhances the ablation margin while reducing the risk of tissue charring.

The STARmed RF electrode is indicated for use in various systems, including the thyroid, uterus, liver, kidney, bone, and more. It supports minimally invasive treatment for benign nodules.
