HIFU(High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive and non-surgical procedure that uses the focusing properties of ultrasound to precisely target diseased tissues (such as uterine fibroids).
This process induces a high-temperature effect in the targeted tissues, leading to coagulative necrosis or liquefaction of diseased tissues, which are eventually naturally absorbed or fibrotized by the body.
Technical Principles
Ultrasound Focusing | : | High-intensity ultrasound waves are focused on the diseased area, forming a highly concentrated energy zone. |
Generates High Temperature | : | The focal point temperature rises instantly above 65°C, precisely ablating tumor cells without damaging surrounding healthy tissues. |
Protects Surrounding Tissues | : | Only the targeted tissues are affected, leaving the surrounding healthy tissues unharmed. |
Natural Absorption | : | Necrotic diseased cells are gradually absorbed by the body, shrinking fibroids and alleviating symptoms. |
