INSIGHTEC’S TECHNOLOGY
Non invasive therapy platform that
combines two proven technologies -
High intensity focused ultrasound and
Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
The high intensity focused ultrasound
(FUS) generates heat at the focal point
to ablate the target tissue.
The MRI enables:
1. to identify and target
2. to monitor in real time the
treatment progress using
thermometry information.
7. • Outpatient, low risk profile
• Real time close loop personalized
therapy
• Tumors’ conformal treatment
• Pathologic tissues (based on MR)
• Larger volume treatments
• Faster treatment rate
• Treatment of moving organs
• Non-heating properties of US
