What is Focal One® HIFU?
The Focal One® system delivers High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to precisely ablate prostate tissue without surgery or radiation. By focusing ultrasound waves on the targeted area, the treatment heats and destroys cancerous tissue while leaving surrounding areas unharmed.
Think of it like sunlight through a magnifying glass—concentrating energy to create a precise, controlled effect.
