Focused Ultrasound Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Focused ultrasound is a noninvasive, therapeutic technology with the potential to improve the quality of life and decrease the cost of care for patients with liver alveococcosis. This novel technology focuses beams of ultrasound energy precisely and accurately on targets deep in the body without damaging surrounding normal tissue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it Works<\/strong>
Where the beams converge, focused ultrasound can produce precise ablation (thermal destruction of the tissue) enabling alveococcosis to be treated and then removed with a percutaneous drainage tube. This approach can avoid open surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advantages<\/strong>
The primary options for treatment of liver alveococcosis include medication and invasive surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For certain patients, focused ultrasound could provide a noninvasive alternative to surgery with less risk of complications \u2013 such as surgical wound healing or infection \u2013 at a lower cost. It can reach the desired target without damaging surrounding tissue and is repeatable, if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clinical Trials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the present time, there are no clinical trials recruiting patients for focused ultrasound treatment of liver alveococcosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Foundation updates these pages regularly, but with the increasing number of clinical trials, we want to be sure that our audience has the latest information available. Therefore, we also added the website search information for the above trials. If you click here<\/strong><\/a>, it will take you to the latest information available from https:\/\/www.clinicaltrials.gov\/<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regulatory Approval and Reimbursement <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Focused ultrasound treatment for liver alveococcosis is not yet approved by regulatory bodies or covered by medical insurance companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
