Computer-based method of determining the path of a HIFU beam through tissue layers from medical images to improve cancer treatment

, 2008
The accurate prediction of the path of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is essential for the destruction of cancerous cells. Knowledge about the layers of tissues traversed by the ultrasound beam would offer a means of predicting the path and ...

Fusion modeling of HIFU treatment versus experimental in vivo HIFU in a porcine model.

, 2015
Post-treatment fusion modeling merged real in vivo liver motion acquired intraoperatively during HIFU treatments (US speckle tracking) and numerical data from the BHTE solving program.

Intermediate clinical endpoints as surrogates for overall survival after salvage prostatectomy

BJU International, EarlyView.
Objectives To evaluate biochemical recurrence‐free survival (BRFS) and metastasis‐free survival (MFS) as potential intermediate clinical endpoints (ICEs) for overall survival (OS) in patients undergoing salvage radical prostatectomy (sRP). Patients and Methods Evaluable patients were selected from a retrospective dataset, resulting in a cohort of 879 ...

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 ...

Fibroids and infertility

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 174, Issue 1, Page 11-16, July 2026.
Abstract The presence of uterine fibroids impacts fertility through multiple mechanisms. While subserosal fibroids have minimal impact, especially when of reduced size, the presence of intramural fibroids impacts both the likelihood of pregnancy and its outcomes.

Improving Clinical Outcomes in Renal HIFU Therapy

, 2012
The rising incidence of small, asymptomatic renal tumours discovered using abdominal imaging during the investigation of unrelated symptoms has fuelled the desire for new therapies which avoid surgical excision.

A new in silico model to precisely design focused ultrasound brain therapies

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background Focused ultrasound (FUS) combined with microbubbles enables transient and noninvasive blood–brain barrier (BBB) opening, facilitating targeted drug delivery. However, accurate treatment planning remains difficult due to inter‐patient anatomical variability and the common assumption in simulations that brain tissues behave like water.

HIFU Beam Imaging Based on Scattering Signals from Focal Area

, 2013
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is one of minimally invasive surgical procedures. However there are refractions and reflections which cause the actual focal point deviates from the geometrical focal point of transducer.

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 4043-4063, July 2026.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.
