Endometrial Ablation. The lining of the uterusâthe endometriumâis shed by bleeding each month during a womanâs menstrual period. Sometimes the bleeding is too much or too long and treatment is needed. If bleeding does not respond to medication, your doctor may suggest endometrial ablation.
Ablation is used to treat abnormal heart rhythms, or arrhythmias. The type of arrhythmia and the presence of other heart disease will determine whether ablation can be performed surgically or non-surgically. Non-surgical ablation, used for many types of arrhythmias, is performed in a special lab called the electrophysiology (EP) laboratory.
