Precision Today. Preservation Tomorrow.
Focused ultrasound technology for the non-invasive treatment of selected uterine fibroids. The HAIFU JC300 uses focused acoustic energy under ultrasound guidance to target selected tissue without a surgical incision.
WHY FOCUSED ULTRASOUND?
Precision without conventional surgical access Focused ultrasound is based on a simple principle: concentrate acoustic energy at a defined focal point to create a therapeutic effect within targeted tissue. Unlike conventional surgery, where instruments physically access and remove tissue, HIFU delivers therapeutic ultrasound through the body to the target. Why this matters? - NON-INVASIVE APPROACH - No surgical incision is required to access the target tissue. - TARGETED ENERGY - Ultrasound energy is concentrated at a defined focal region rather than being delivered broadly across the treatment area. - IMAGE-GUIDED - Imaging can be used to identify the target, plan treatment and monitor the treatment region. - LOCALISED TISSUE EFFECT - At the focal region, the concentrated ultrasound energy can produce a thermal effect capable of causing coagulative tissue ablation. - UTERUS-PRESERVING APPROACH - For appropriately selected fibroid patients, HIFU treats targeted fibroid tissue without surgically removing the uterus. This does not, however, mean that fertility or pregnancy outcomes are guaranteed. - NO SURGICAL REMOVAL OF THE TARGET - The objective is to treat the targeted tissue in situ. The treated tissue may subsequently undergo biological changes and shrink over time. Focused ultrasound concentrates acoustic energy at a defined focal region, creating a localised therapeutic tissue effect. With appropriate imaging and treatment planning, the technology offers a non-invasive approach for selected patients and conditions. Focused energy. Targeted tissue effect. Image-guided precision.
WHAT THE TECHNOLOGY OFFERS:
No surgical incision
A non-invasive procedure that does not require a surgical incision to access the target tissue.
Performed under conscious sedation
You remain comfortable and responsive throughout the procedure, with no general anaesthetic required.
Faster recovery
Published evidence reports shorter hospital stay and faster return to daily activities compared to surgery.
Uterus-preserving treatment
Targets the fibroid while preserving the uterus — pregnancy after HIFU has been reported in peer-reviewed literature.
Outpatient procedure
An outpatient approach for many patients. Most leave the same day, though individual circumstances vary.
Image-guided precision
Real-time ultrasound imaging is designed to target each fibroid while limiting exposure to surrounding tissue.
Reduced hospital stay
Meta-analysis reports hospital stay reduced significantly versus surgery (Liu et al., Eur Radiol 2021).
Advanced conformal ablation
JC300 conformal ablation mode designed for single-session treatment; individual outcomes vary by clinical factors.
