As a safe and effective alternative to conventional surgical options, minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation is becoming increasingly popular in a variety of medical disciplines. Although named for its original purpose as an EndoVenous RadioFrequency generator for treating symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency, the versatile EVRF can now be combined with a multitude of unique, proprietary disposables to treat various proctological, vascular and dermatological conditions, including:

• Varicose saphenous veins
• Varicose superficial collateral and perforating veins
• Telangiectasia (spider veins)
• Haemorrhoids
• Anal fistulas

Its plug-and-play technology makes preparation a breeze, and a convenient foot switch keeps both hands free when delivering targeted monopolar (4 MHz) energy. Parameter presets for multiple treatment types can be accessed easily through the touchscreen display, which tracks time and energy consumption (in joules) for each session.

	Veineo RF catheters for treatment of varicose vein Veineo is a minimally invasive solution for treating varicose saphenous, perforating or collateral varicose veins quickly and safely using radiofrequency ablation. The key to treatment success: a trio of lumen-free radiofrequency catheters. Besides rendering them practically indestructible, the catheters’ reinforcing internal steel wires ensure crystal-clear ultrasound visibility while maintaining the necessary flexibility to follow tortuous veins—with no need for an additional guide wire. The two larger catheters have markings at regular intervals (every 7 mm) to assist with timing, and all three have a thermal-effect radius of just 3 mm, which prevents damage to surrounding tissue.
	Rafaelo Radiofrequency Probes for treatment of hemorrhoid Rafaelo is performed using the HPR45i needle probe, which is inserted into the pile and used to deliver targeted RF energy. Unlike in electrocautery, radiofrequency ablation results in very little heat spread beyond the tip of the electrode—the 2 mm-diameter HPR45i needle probe has a thermal radius of just 3 mm, enabling precise thermocoagulation without damaging surrounding tissue.
	Fistura RF catheters for treatment of anal fistula Fistura RF catheters The innovative Fistura procedure is a minimally invasive, sphincter-sparing method of treating anal fistulae using radiofrequency catheter ablation. Highly flexible Fistura catheters help users follow the fistula tract easily, sealing it along its entire length in a matter of minutes. Markings along the catheter serve as a convenient visual guide: simply withdraw the catheter by one marking every 12 seconds. Moreover, the catheter tip has a thermal effect radius of just 3 mm, which prevents damage to the surrounding tissue.
