Cancer Treatment: Scientists all over the world are busy finding new treatments for deadly diseases like cancer. In this direction, AI generated HIFU technology (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is giving rise to new possibilities in the treatment of cancer. Actually, this is a technique of cancer treatment in which cancer cells are destroyed through sound waves. Although this technique cannot be considered suitable for every type of cancer, but this technique is becoming very effective for the treatment of prostate cancer. Let us know what HIFU is and how it works.
What is HIFU technology?
HIFU is a cancer treatment technique in which ultrasound sound waves are delivered to the patient’s body through a machine. These waves reach the cancer affected area and heat the cancer cells and destroy them. HIFU technology may prove effective in treating tumors. This treatment does not require medicine, surgery or chemotherapy. Health experts say that after the advent of AI, there has been a lot of improvement in HIFU technology and in the last 10 to 15 years, HIFU technology has proved to be very useful.
Treatment with the help of AI
Let us tell you that compared to previous years, the new age HIFU machines are running on AI and they also give accurate results. Let us tell you that till now HIFU technology was being used only for the treatment of prostate cancer. But now its treatment is being discovered for other types of cancer like breast cancer, uterine cancer, fibroids and other non-cancerous developments. Although finding treatment for all these types of cancers through HIFU technology will take time and will also pose many challenges, but it can be made possible through new technology.
HIFU technique is better or surgery
What is better for cancer treatment, HIFU technique or surgery. In this regard, doctors say that cancer can recur even after using HIFU technology. Because once treated, cancer can later affect any other organ. Same is the case with surgery because cancer can return at any time even after surgery. Therefore, both HIFU technology and surgery cannot guarantee zero risk of cancer in the future. However, HIFU technique can be said to be less painful than surgery.
