The device is inserted via a laparoscopic probe and guided inside the fibroid tissue using an ultrasound probe. The heat shrinks the fibroids. Clinical data on the procedure show an average of 45% shrinkage. RFA is also used in the treatment of Morton's neuroma [54] where the outcome appears to be more reliable than alcohol injections. [55]
