How Much Does Radiofrequency ablation Cost in Spain?

The cost of radiofrequency ablation in Spain typically ranges from $9,500 to $14,500. Prices vary depending on the type of ablation (cardiac, spinal, or varicose veins), the clinic, and the doctor’s experience. In the United States, the average cost is $40,000 (per AHA or SIR). That means radiofrequency ablation in Spain is about 70% less than in the U.S.

Spanish clinics usually include pre-op consultation, anesthesia, the ablation procedure, hospital stay (if needed), and follow-up visits in the price. In the U.S., the quoted price often covers only the procedure itself, with separate bills for anesthesia, facility, and post-op care. Always confirm with the clinic what’s included in your package.

Our Radiofrequency ablation Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Radiofrequency ablation, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS)

This non-invasive procedure uses focused ultrasound waves under MRI guidance to treat specific medical conditions without incisions.

Pros: Offers precise targeting of tissues with minimal damage to surrounding areas. Reduces recovery time significantly compared to invasive surgeries. No radiation exposure involved.

Cons: Not suitable for all types of tumors or conditions. Limited accessibility due to specialized equipment requirements.

Effectiveness: Success rates of 70% to 90% in reducing tumor size or alleviating symptoms.

Duration: The procedure typically takes 3 to 4 hours.

Recovery: Recovery time is usually 24 to 48 hours.

Best for: Ideal for treating uterine fibroids, essential tremors, and pain associated with bone metastases.

Prices: Cost of Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS) in Spain from $9,000

Radiofrequency Ablation of the Liver

Radiofrequency ablation of the liver is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to destroy cancer cells in the liver.

Pros: Offers a high success rate of 85% in small tumors. Less invasive than surgical resection, leading to a quicker recovery and fewer complications.

Cons: Limited to tumors smaller than 5 cm. May require multiple sessions for complete treatment and potentially less effective for larger tumors.

Effectiveness: 85% success rate for tumors smaller than 3 cm.

Duration: 1-2 hours

Recovery: 1-2 days

Best for: Tumors smaller than 5 cm in diameter. Particularly effective for patients with liver cancer not suitable for surgery.

Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping

Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping is a minimally invasive procedure using radio waves to target and treat arrhythmias with precision.

Pros: Offers precise targeting of cardiac arrhythmias with 3D imaging, reducing recurrence rates by up to 80%. Minimizes damage to surrounding tissues compared to other methods.

Cons: Requires specialized equipment and expertise, which may not be available in all medical facilities. Potential for longer procedure times compared to simpler techniques.

Effectiveness: Success rate of 70-90% in treating atrial fibrillation.

Duration: 2-4 hours.

Recovery: 1-2 weeks.

Best for: Treating complex cardiac arrhythmias in patients not responding to medication. Suitable for patients with atrial fibrillation.
