What makes HIFU a preferred treatment for prostate cancer?

High-intensity focused ultrasound therapy is a noninvasive treatment option that uses precise ultrasound waves to target and get rid of cancerous cells in the prostate. Unlike traditional methods, HIFU minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, leading to fewer side effects. This makes it an increasingly popular treatment for prostate cancer, especially for those seeking less-invasive options.

How long does a single HIFU session take?

A typical HIFU session at Kasraeian Urology, under the skilled hands of Dr. Ali Kasraeian, usually lasts about 2 – 4 hours. This duration can vary depending on the size and location of the cancer within the prostate. The precision of the high-intensity focused ultrasound device used at Kasraeian Urology ensures that the treatment is as efficient and effective as possible, targeting only the cancerous cells.

What is the longevity of HIFU treatments?

The longevity of results from HIFU treatment can vary among patients. Factors such as the stage of cancer, the patient's overall health, and how well the cancer responds to the treatment play a significant role. In many cases, patients experience successful results that last for years, underscoring the effectiveness of HIFU as a long-term solution for prostate cancer management.
