## Questions & answers
### [Why is the Minerva ES ablation cycle always 120 seconds?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/minerva-surgical-united-states-q104481232#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-7e2407347f8311bc-a-9f2bd39b0728e7e0de8a)
“Every patient will receive a 120 second treatment cycle, however the amount of energy delivered during the 120 seconds will vary from patient to patient depending on uterine cavity size and thickness of the endometrium. Each ablation starts with a maximum of 40W of power and declines over the course of the ablation as the impedance within the cavity increases.”

### [Does Minerva ES require direct tissue contact?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/minerva-surgical-united-states-q104481232#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-7e2407347f8311bc-a-5260559c1a3511bac41b)
“Minerva ES does not rely solely on direct tissue contact to achieve optimal ablation. Three simultaneous and complementary methods of tissue ablation are being employed by Minerva, providing a truly global ablation.”

### [How does the device respond to changes in the uterine cavity?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/minerva-surgical-united-states-q104481232#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-7e2407347f8311bc-a-8ec7b0ccd3b8c420d6c3)
“Minerva ES is the only ablation system that modulates the power level over the course of the ablation cycle. The controller adjusts power in real time by assessing the changes in the state of the uterine cavity during the ablation process, with measurements being taken and adjustments made 50 times per second.”

### [What is Plasma?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/minerva-surgical-united-states-q104481232#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-7e2407347f8311bc-a-db030978ce89dca48422)
“Plasma is another term for ionized gas, in this case argon. The argon gas inside the membrane is ionized by the RF energy delivered to the handpiece from the Minerva Controller.”
