#$%^&*AU2015201081A120150402.pdf#####Abstract The invention provides a device, a system, and methods for operating the device and system to ablationally treat abnormal epithelial tissue of the uterine cervix, such as neoplastic tissue, a general term to encompass both cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and early invasive cancer. The ablation device includes an operative head supported by a distal portion of the shaft, the head having a distal support surface adapted to conformably engage at least a portion of the cervix, and an energy delivery element on the support surface, the element configured to receive energy from a source and to deliver ablational energy to the tissue in a manner that controls the surface area and depth of ablation.
