PRECISION
MATTERS

The Focal One® Robotic Focal HIFU Product Details included high performance imaging and HIFU technology which allows Urologist to precisely target the prostate with submillimetric accuracy, sparing healthy surrounding tissue and preserving patients’ quality of life.   

Focal One Robotic Focal HIFU Product Details

Focal One Robotic HIFU platform is designed for urologists to perform focal ablation of prostate tissue. Consequently, combining the latest innovations in imaging, robotics, and HIFU technologies offers a precise and user-friendly tool for the urologist.

  • Robotic Positioning System provides enhanced precision with 5 degrees of freedom and automatic safety features.

 

  • Dynamic Focusing Probe  combines high resolution real-time ultrasound imaging with precise HIFU energy delivery. Resulting in expanded reach and fastest treatment.
  • Fusion HIFUsion® software allows the urologist to import, visualize and perform elastic fusion of MRI or 3D biopsy maps at the time of treatment.

  • Integrated Workstation flexible cart-based system offers the user convenince of compatiblity with standard hospital OR beds.

Dynamic Focusing Technology

Real Time Imaging Precision

The Focal One probe allows for real-time imaging during treatments with the highest quality ultrasound imaging transducer on any HIFU system. The dynamic focusing technology provides precise energy delivery in 5mm increments up to 40mm in anterior to posterior length which expands the distance previously available in transrectal approaches.

Biopsy and MRI Guided Focal HIFU Product Details

HIFUsion proprietary software combines pre-operative MRI and 3D biopsy data with real-time ultrasound. This allows the urologist to contour treatments precisely to target the lesion and avoid critical structures. HIFUsion is an open-platform concept that uses the latest DICOM standard compatible with all MRI scanners and most fusion biopsy platforms: Automatic registration of 3D contours of the prostate (3D translations and rotations) Elastic (non-rigid) transformation applied to MRI targets and biopsy trajectories to be visualized in the ultrasound.

Designed For Urologist to perform focal ablation of prostate tissue
