Polished Plastic Colposcopy Diathermy Loop Leep Electrodes

A loop diathermy is used to treat an abnormality (something that is not normal) on the cervix. It involves taking a biopsy of the cervix (neck of the womb) using a thin loop of electrified wire to remove the abnormal cells. This procedure is also known as a large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ).
