Focal High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)
2014Transrectal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is highly suitable for focal therapy of localized prostate cancer for several reasons. HIFU induces immediate and irreversible coagulative necrosis with sharply delineated boundaries. The treatment can be accurately targeted to a portion of the prostate gland.

Principles of high-intensity focused ultrasound
2016Introduction High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), also known as focused ultrasound (US), is a non-invasive image-guided therapy which has been primarily employed in the clinical realm for non-invasive thermal ablation of benign and malignant neoplasms.

High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU).
The Canadian journal of urology, 2011Curative treatments for localized prostate cancer, from least invasive to most invasive, include brachytherapy, cryosurgery, three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy, external beam radiation therapy, and radical prostatectomy. A patient with localized, low risk or intermediate risk prostate cancer who is diagnosed at an early age and receives one ...

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Effectively Reduces Adipose Tissue
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2009Liposonix is considered to be a nonsurgical treatment for body contouring that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to disrupt adipocytes percutaneously. We wanted to find out about its efficacy, effectiveness, and so forth. The technique delivers energy across the skin surface at a relatively low intensity, but brings this energy to a sharp ...

Noninvasive Thermometry in High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Ablation
Ultrasound Quarterly, 2017AbstractHigh-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is emerging as an effective and promising treatment modality for the formation of coagulative necrosis inside the cancer/tumor noninvasively. To guarantee the efficacy and efficiency of HIFU ablation, the temperature field and consequent thermal dose should be monitored accurately in a high temporal and ...

Principles of High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound
2011Although its use for therapeutic purposes predates diagnostic applications by several decades, ultrasound is most widely known for its imaging capabilities. The passage of ultrasound (US) through tissue can lead to biological changes that may be reversible or irreversible.
