How HIFU Treatment (HIFU) treats uterine fibroids
The principle is similar to that of a magnifying glass focusing sunlight. Ultrasonic waves are emitted from outside the body through skin, fat, muscle and other tissues. The ultrasound waves are finally focused on fibroids, generating a high temperature of 65~85℃ to destroy the tissues of uterine fibroids, achieving non-invasive treatment of the uterus.
Who are the cadidates for HIFU?
- Uterine fibroids 2~10 cm.
- Fear of surgery, choose non-surgical treatment.
