Abstract

High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a novel physical tumor therapeutic technology which applies the ultrasound well targeting, focusing, tissue absorbing property, and so on. It focused outer transducer low intensity ultrasound wave and targeted in the tumor, whichcan raise the temperature above 60℃ rapidly and induce tissue irreversible coagulation necrosis, with no damage to the surrounding normal tissue. It is a new physical tumor treatment technology.
