High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Decreases Subcutaneous Fat Tissue Thickness by Increasing Apoptosis and Autophagy

Biomolecules, 2023
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) leads to decreased subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) thickness via heat-induced adipocyte necrosis. Heat can induce adipocyte apoptosis and autophagy, and it is known that nuclear or mitochondrial p53 is involved ...

HIFU therapy Review of current status. [PDF]

, 2023
INTRODUCTION In recent years, HIFU therapy has become a viable surgical alternative for patients who still wish to have their uterus. However, adenomyosis is a disease that is very sensitive to the estrogen hormone, and HIFU therapy will not change the

High-Frequency Jet Ventilation for HIFU [PDF]

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2014
We read the review by Muller et al. [1] about the management of respiratory motion in high-intensity focused ultrasound with great interest. As acknowledged by the authors, the motion of abdominal organs due to ventilation is sometimes a main obstacle for interventional radiology [2]. This is a critical issue for HIFU treatment where energy deposits in

High-intensity focused ultrasound in the treatment of breast fibroadenomata (HIFU-F trial) [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: High-intensity focussed ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive ablative technique utilising the application of high frequency ultrasound (US) pressure waves to cause tissue necrosis.

Prostate Segmentation in HIFU Therapy

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2011
Prostate segmentation in 3-D transrectal ultrasound images is an important step in the definition of the intra-operative planning of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy. This paper presents two main approaches for the semi-automatic methods based on discrete dynamic contour and optimal surface detection.
