With high-intensity focused ultrasound, or HIFU, we can target and destroy damaged prostate tissue without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue.
We use Sonablate®️ technology.
High-intensity focused ultrasound, or “HIFU,” uses sound energy to generate heat that ablates (destroys) targeted tissue within the body. The concept is similar to using the sun and a magnifying glass to burn a hole in a leaf. Focused sound waves pass safely through prostate tissue until they reach the focal point, where they produce enough heat to destroy only that tissue.
Your doctor has diagnosed prostate cancer. Based on MRI results and your individual needs, your physician will create a treatment plan for tissue that needs to be ablated (destroyed).
With pinpoint accuracy, Sonablate HIFU will ablate only the diseased tissue, leaving healthy tissue unharmed.
Your physician will monitor the procedure in real-time, adjusting and customizing the procedure to address your individual condition.
