Haifu Focused Ultrasound tumor therapeutic System

Haifu Focused Ultrasound tumor therapeutic System is a tumor ablation technique developed in recent years that allows for non-invasive treatment of solid tumors using High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU). This method works by physically focusing ultrasound energy at a single point within biological tissue, creating a focal zone of high-power, low-frequency ultrasound that induces mechanical fragmentation (histotripsy) and cavitation effects, dissolving the tissue into fragments and destroying tumor cells. Under real-time ultrasound imaging guidance, various scanning treatment protocols are used to move the focal point throughout the treatment zone, effectively ablating the tumor tissue. The destroyed tumor tissue is gradually absorbed by the body. Since this technique does not require needle puncture, electrode insertion, radiation, or thermal effects, it is minimally invasive and holds the potential to overcome the limitations of existing ablation technologies.
