Here is what users have to say about MRgFUS

HIFU (high-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) (sometimes FUS or HIFUS) is a highly precise medical procedure using high-intensity focused ultrasound medical device to heat and destroy pathogenic tissue rapidly. It is one modality of therapeutic ultrasound, and, although it induces hyperthermia, it should not be confused with this technique, which heats much less rapidly and to much lower therapeutic temperatures (in general < 45°C).
