  1. aFor fibroids ≤ 5.0 cm in maximum diameter
  2. bIncludes one fibroid that received two ablations, one subject with two fibroids that each received single ablations, and one ablation in pathology-confirmed adenomyosis
  3. cOne subject had two fibroids, each of which received a single ablation
