Nagpur, India (prHWY.com) March 25, 2012 - One of the most well-known cancer treatments available is high intensity focused ultrasound or HIFU for prostate cancer treatment in India. This updated technology helps men by removing cancerous tissue on the prostate and around it via an advanced acoustic ablation technique using ultrasound wave powers. The area where the cancer is forming is targeted via sound waves enabling HIFU to raise the tissue's temperature, causing the tissue to break down, thus eliminating the cancer.

Many physicians recommend HIFU for prostate cancer treatment in India because of the limited harmful side effects also because of the precision and control linked with HIFU, other side effects common to other prostate cancer treatments, including incontinence and erectile dysfunction are greatly reduced.

The HIFU system can be compared to the concept of focusing the rays of the sun through any magnifying lens. Accurate focusing of the ultrasound energy is provided by HIFU. This focusing of the ultrasound energy increases the affected tissue's temperature in the targeted area. This is done very rapidly while all unaffected tissue in the area remains safe and does not increase in temperature. The surgeon, when the procedure is over, is able to monitor the precise wound located in the target area. However, before this can occur, first the surgeon creates a plan to locate all the infected tissue areas.
