Ultrasound-guided intrauterine radio-frequency ablation system (A multicomponent assembly of devices that uses electrical energy in the radio-frequency (RF) band designed to develop heat directly within soft-tissue cells for transcervical and intrauterine ablation of uterine fibroids, and uses ultrasound to target the RF delivery. It consists of a radio-frequency generator, a software-controlled ultrasound system, an intrauterine ultrasound transducer, a monopolar electrosurgical handpiece/electrode, and a return electrode(s). It also typically includes associated cables, and a foot-switch.)
