Thanks had never come across this. Will have to try to find more about it wonder how good long term success is and how widely accepted it is.

re alternate treatment for fibroids
Thanks for info..I had heard of all kinds of ablative procedures- ultrasound, microwave, etc. being investigated, and I imagine there will be others in addition to this MRI/US system coming down the pike. these may find a niche, but I doubt any will appreciably displace a safe medical alternative
