Nasal Treatment with RF?

[Scott D Kniffin <Scott.D.Kniffin.1@gsfc.nasa.gov>]

Hi all,

I caught part of a medical segment on the news the other night about using
RF to treat chronically swollen sinuses.  The extreme brevity of what I saw
didn't give me any info about wether it was good, bad or otherwise.  Anyone
heard anything about this?  I couldn't help thinking about radium nasal
treatments when I caught this snippet.  (Not that I expect any parallels
between the two.)
