About This Trial
This study will investigate Harmonic Motion Imaging guided Focused Ultrasound (HMIgFUS) method for ablation and sonoporation monitoring of breast tumors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of real-time guidance/monitoring and ablation/sonoporation method. The hypothesis behind this proposed study is that High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) can be used to ablate tumor tissue, an…
