High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) in Uterine Fibroid Treatment: Review Study [PDF]

Polish Journal of Radiology, 2014
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a highly precise medical procedure used locally to heat and destroy diseased tissue through ablation. This study intended to review HIFU in uterine fibroid therapy, to evaluate the role of HIFU in the therapy of leiomyomas as well as to review the actual clinical activities in this field including efficacy ...

Mapping the lineage of prostate tissue ablation medical device predicates for focal therapy of prostate cancer approved via the FDA 510(k) clearance pathway

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Medical devices are reviewed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for safety and effectiveness. Class II devices can receive 510(k) clearance if they are “substantially equivalent” to an existing predicate device. This process can be repeated iteratively, leading to a lineage of predicates for newly cleared devices.

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

International Journal of Hyperthermia, 2017
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. This emerging technology is currently limited by prolonged treatment times. The aim of the HIFU-F trial was to perform circumferential HIFU treatment as a means of shortening

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

The PART randomised trial protocol: Partial Ablation versus Radical Treatment for prostate cancer

BJU International, EarlyView.
Objectives Primary objective: to determine whether prostate gland partial ablation (PA) has non‐inferior oncological treatment success vs radical treatment (RT) of localised intermediate‐risk prostate cancer (irPCa). Secondary objectives: to compare (i) participant‐reported urinary and sexual dysfunction side effects, (ii) short/medium term serious ...
