The Ablatherm®

The Ablatherm® is a computer-guided medical device for the treatment of localized prostate cancer using high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). The energy is delivered through an endorectal probe.

The ultrasound waves travel through the rectal wall and are focused in the prostate. This focusing produces intense heat and destroys the tissue inside the targeted zone. The treatment (1 to 3 hours) can be performed under general or spinal anesthesia.
