## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: High‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a new, noninvasive technique with potential to ablate and inactivate tumors. Treatment of solid tumors with HIFU has been reported. In this study, the safety and effects of HIFU in the clinical therapy of malignant bone tumors
## Abstract Our aim was to evaluate the influence of regional prostate blood flow (rPBF) on high‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment outcome. A total of 48 patients with clinically localized prostate cancer were examined by dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE)‐MRI prior to HIFU therapy. A pros
