Seek treatment.: A randomized controlled prospective clinical trial published in JAMA in 2014 shows that Radiofrequency ablation reduces the chance of neoplastic progression to cancer by 25% for patients with low grade dysplasia when compared with endoscopic surveillance. Your specialist will help you make the decision whether it is necessary. More trials are needed for short segment disease with mild dysplasia.
