High‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound for Botulinum Toxin‐Induced Ptosis: A Retrospective Pilot Case Series

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Botulinum toxin‐induced ptosis is a recognized complication of aesthetic injections that may adversely affect cosmetic outcomes and patient satisfaction. Pharmacologic management is limited and primarily aims to provide temporary elevation of the upper eyelid through stimulation of Müller's muscle. High‐intensity focused ultrasound (

Case of Basal Cell Prostate Cancer and Recurrence With Prostatic Adenocarcinoma in a United States Military Veteran Exposed to Agent Orange

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Pre‐operative and post‐operative T2 MRI and PSMA PETCT. ABSTRACT Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. Acinar adenocarcinoma accounts for 90% of primary prostatic cancers. Carcinoma of the basal cells of the prostate is extremely rare, making up less than 1% of prostate cancer ...

A computational tool for evaluating HIFU safety.

Annali dell'Istituto superiore di sanita, 2017
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a noninvasive treatment for therapeutic applications, in particular the treatment of either benign or malignant tumor lesions. HIFU treatment is based on the power of a focused ultrasound beam to locally heat biological tissues over a necrotic level with minimal impact on the surrounding tissues.

Function of Epirubicin-Conjugated Polymeric Micelles in Sonodynamic Therapy

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The combinatory use of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and epirubicin (EPI)-conjugated polymeric micellar nanoparticles (NC-6300) is thought to be a less invasive and more efficient method of cancer therapy.

A robotic approach to HIFU based neurosurgery [PDF]

, 1998
The use of robotics in surgical interventions not only has the potential for minimally invasive surgical procedures but can improve performance and result in reduced operative time and post-operative trauma/recovery. This paper describes the concept of a robotic based High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system as a neuro-surgical tool for the destruction
