Endometrial Thermal Balloon Ablation Using a High Temperature, Pulsed System: A Mathematical Model

A new endometrial thermal balloon ablation treatment for menorrhagia is modeled mathematically to predict its efficacy and safety. A device preheats a fluid to 173°C within a reservoir external to the uterus, and then pulses this fluid without further heating between the reservoir and the balloon fo...
