What is HIFU?

HIFU (High Intensity Focus Ultrasound), is a new noninvasive treatment for uterine.

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.
