English term or phrase: sheath

The Disposable Device consists of a single-patient use, conformable bipolar electrode array mounted on an expandable frame that can create a confluent lesion on the entire interior surface area of the uterine cavity.
The Disposable Device is inserted transcervically into the uterine cavity, and the sheath is retracted to allow the bipolar electrode array to be deployed and conform to the uterine cavity.
The bipolar electrode array is formed from a metalized, porous fabric through which steam and moisture are continuously suctioned from the desiccated tissue.
