MR guided focused ultrasound
The joining of high-intensity focused ultrasound with high-resolution MR guidance has created a system that can produce tissue destruction deep within solid organs without any invasion. Accurate targeting and thermal mapping are provided by MRI and allow very accurate deposition of energy in tissues that can be altered in response to near real-time thermal imaging produced by MR so that the var...
متن کاملUltrasound- and MR-guided focused ultrasound surgery for prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in men. There are a number of treatment options for PC with a different therapeutic approach between USA and Europe. Radical prostatectomy is one of the most used therapies but focal gland therapy is an emerging approach, especially for localized tumors. In this scenario, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been incor...
متن کاملMR Guided Focused Ultrasound surgery: New Clinical Applications
Tissue destruction by thermal ablation occurs when the targeted delivery of heat or cold causes a rapid change in temperature (>55°C for heat or <−20–50°C for cold) in the local tissue environment. Imaging can be used to localize and target the thermal effects to the target/tumor for treatment, control the energy deposition, and assess treatment response. Therapeutic applications of ultrasound ...
متن کاملMr-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery of Breast Cancer
Background Among presently available modalities, MRI is considered to provide the closest images of breast cancer (BC) to pathological findings. MR-Guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS) is a recently developed non-invasive thermal ablation system. MRgFUS system is composed of a treatment device (Exablate2000, InSightec Inc., Israel) to focus ultrasound beams to produce sharply localized hi...
متن کاملFUSBOTs: Image-guided Robotic Systems for FUS (Focused Ultrasound Surgery)
Minimally invasive and non-invasive surgical techniques remained a prime research focus in bio-medical arena in the past over two decades due to their numerous advantages over conventional surgery methods. Remote ablation of deep-seated abnormalities by various modalities such as the use of focused high intensity ultrasound can provide completely non-invasive procedures if the energy in the bea...
