Keyword(s): Uterine Fibroid, HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound).

Abstract: Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumours among women of childbearing age with a prevalence varying from 5.4% to 77%. The most common symptoms of uterine fibroids include: heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure or pain and infertility. Symptoms can be influenced by the location, size and number of fibroids. Fibroids are most often identified during a routine pelvic examination by a physician. Treatments may include temporary medical treatments, surgery or uterine artery embolization. As all of the methods above have considerable disadvantages, we propose a medical device using High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) in a minimally procedure in which an ultrasound probe is inserted into the uterus to precisely ablate the fibroid and shrink it. Our new medical device proposal is aimed at improving clinical efficacy and patient satisfaction.
