Nerve block and high-frequency thermocoagulation are powerful tools for treating spinal disorders and refractory peripheral joint pain by addressing the nerves. Cooled RF (Water-cooled High-Frequency Thermocoagulation) is a newer generation of high-frequency thermocoagulation technology, which was included in Japan's health insurance coverage this year.

[Water-cooled High-Frequency Thermocoagulation Therapy, Cooled RF] Due to its water-cooling system maintaining a constant temperature of 50-60 degrees Celsius, the cauterization area is wider and more circular than traditional low-temperature electroacupuncture, but the price is also relatively higher.

The participants at this conference were mainly neurosurgeons, but Bow Wang, M.D. also took this opportunity to share and exchange treatment experiences with experts from orthopedics, rehabilitation, and anesthesiology to make up for any gaps in their knowledge and skills. It is hoped that National Cheng Kung University Hospital can introduce [Water-cooled High-Frequency Thermocoagulation Therapy, Cooled RF] as soon as possible to benefit more patients in need.
