Focus Surgery's Sonablate® 500 system combines proprietary multi-focal length transducer technology in a custom, transrectal imaging and therapy probe.
The Sonablate® 500 system uses ultrasound imaging for treatment planning and monitoring, and Split-Beam HIFUTM and Single-Beam HIFUTM for targeted, noninvasive tissue treatment. The proprietary HIFU Simu-planTM therapy treatment software allows the surgeon to select multiple treatment zones as necessary for a doctor-directed, computer-controlled treatment.
A new color-coded overlay planning system with enhanced prostate visualization simplifies the process. The active cooling and circulation system, along with the HIFU-RIMTM (Reflectivity Index Measurement) system (with RDMTM - Rectal Wall Distance Measurement) provide for treatment safety.
A slim, space-saving cabinet with a reduced footprint has been matched with a 17-inch, true color, flat panel monitor with 1280 x 1024 high resolution capability for ease of use and volumetric prostate visualization.
The Sonablate® is an investigational device limited by Federal Law to investigational use in the United States.
