Abstract

High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or focused ultrasound surgery (FUS) is a completely noninvasive treatment modality. It has long been known to oer “trackless lesioning, " and it has been identied as an “ideal surgical tool” for several decades. However, only aer it was integrated with modern imaging methods has HIFU become a clinical reality. A high quality imaging technique was needed to provide visualization and localization of target tissue, monitoring of tissue changes during treatment, and outcome assessment aer treatment.
