N2 - Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an endoscopic treatment modality for Barrett’s esophagus (BE). RFA has proven safe and highly effective for endoscopic eradication of Barrett’s mucosa containing dysplasia and for residual Barrett’s mucosa after focal endoscopic resection (ER) of visible lesions. This endoscopic treatment strategy is standard of care for Barrett’s associated early neoplasia in all current guidelines. This chapter will evaluate the use of circumferential and focal RFA for the treatment of BE. The indications and technical aspects will be discussed, and we will review follow-up intervals after successful treatment with RFA. In addition, we will discuss the efficacy and safety outcomes of RFA.
