Abstract

High intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU) in the treatment of uterine fibroids was gradually developed,but there is no uniform standard in efficacy evaluation.Imaging can provide more precise and objective image information;it is an important component of clinical evaluation.This paper reviewed HIFU in the treatment of uterine fibroids and emphasised on its main imaging evaluation methods and features.
