High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) in Uterine Fibroid Treatment: Review Study
BACKGROUND 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 and safety measures beside the pub...
متن کاملI-50: The Effect of Uterine Leiomyomas on Reproductive Performance
Background: Uterine leiomyomas (fibroids) are now known to be highly variable in their clinical behavior and biologic basis. However, the approach to leiomyomas and their effect on fertility, miscarriage and pregnancy complications has been based on location alone. Materials and Methods: This talk with bring together published information on the effect of leiomyomas on reproductive performance ...
متن کاملThree cases of complications after high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment in unmarried women
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been regarded as a non-surgical, minimally invasive therapeutic option for patients who prioritize uterus-conservation. Although many studies have shown that HIFU therapy is a safe and effective treatment of uterine fibroid, not all fibroids are suitable for HIFU due to risks of serious complications. We experienced three cases of complications after...
متن کاملI-49: Safely Extending Focused Ultrasound Surgery for Uterine Leiomyomas to Women Who Desire Future Pregnancies
Background: Focused ultrasound surgery (FUS) is a novel noninvasive surgery that results in localized tissue necrosis without any breech of the skin or other body orifice. MRI guidance provides anatomic visualization and real time thermal feedback. Our goal is to safely extend this therapy to women who desire future pregnancies. Materials and Methods: We have undertaken 4 multisite trials of FU...
متن کاملPreliminary clinical results: MR-HIFU Ablation of uterine fibroids with automatic volumetric ablation
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) allows non invasive treatment of uterine fibroids without anaesthesia and a fast return to normal activity [1]. For this thermotherapy procedure, MR guidance provides anatomical images to plan treatment of the fibroid, thermal maps to quantify the HIFU heating and contrast enhanced images to measure the induced nonperfused volume. This routine clinical p...
