Millions could benefit from a new non invasive treatment

 

Millions could benefit from a new noninvasive spotlighted is the second International MR-guided treatments related to Ultrasound Symposium

Newswise — related to Ultrasound Surgery Foundation hosts the 2nd International Symposium on MR-guided related to Ultrasound, Chantilly, Virginia 17-20 October from Leading researchers and clinical. from around the world gathered in a three-day Conference to discuss the latest scientific and revolutionary batteries and promising therapeutic medicine sector.


Joy Polefrone, Ph.d., Scientific Secretary of the Committee for "MR-guided symposium says active ULTRASOUND combines the nuclear magnetic resonance imaging properties of Visual accuracy active ULTRASOUND to noninvasively tumours and other tissues of the discrepancies and dissolve blood clots of blood.". "It also examines the following costs shall be borne by the radiation therapy, and targeted drug delivery, which is a kind of custom in medicine that could dramatically more effective, and reduce the toxic effects of chemotherapy and similar treatments Forum."


Patients ' advances in the field of MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND is expected to lead to a new, highly accurate noninvasive procedures that improve survival and quality of life. "Treatments, which is now included in the hospital remains, the long recovery time and the debilitating side effects could replace the outpatient care treatments for recovery times and few, possible side effects," Polefrone explains.


MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND is used now world-wide work with the poor rotissa. outside of the United States is also approved for the treatment of metastatic bone pain associated with cancer. A variety of other research activities are currently underway. Accumulators spotlighted at symposium in the following areas:


Emerging treatments for patients
? Prostate cancer – a safe, efficient and highly accurate outpatient care treatments that preserves continence patient power and are very common treatments for the disease, a new noninvasive MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND priorities., several symposium presentations and posters in the early stages of human described the results of clinical trials evaluating two different ways. First of all, transurethral device shall be treated as a pilot study of Canadian patients. Second, transrectal, the device is now substances patients is medical work centers in Russia and Singapore.


? Breast cancer – may MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND serve as replacement of lumpectomy that excisionless early breast cancer patients? Japanese researcher, Hidemi Furusawa, m., considers that it has such opportunities.As evidence, which he distributes a new noninvasive technology was used in the treatment of Breast 57 patients ' saving the results of the comparison.


? Is not allowed in common back pain pain-a small, which is not allowed in the joints must be marked clinical problem, cause suffering, particularly the elderly and immobility. Patients that need more than a physical therapy, therapeutic lifestyle-and is not permitted on contributions of capital short-term relief can be processed in a closed installation rhizotomy, noninvasive surgical, which uses heat to destroy nerve endings. United States of America and Japan, as the case may be, shall be subject to inspection by the researchers now active ULTRASOUND MR-guided is not allowed in common ablation efficient approach.During the symposium they report the results of the initial management of patients.


? Essential tremor-MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND field was ignited. last year, the Swiss researchers used a noninvasive technique successfully process the patient the most difficult to — the brain body within the territory of one of the news at the latest.Landmark study is paved with brain disorders, essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, brain tumours, and line a broad spectrum of clinical investigations. in addition to providing for the long-term monitoring data in Switzerland to study, the first symposium offers patients study Preview: follow-on to the assessment of the safety and efficacy of the MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND multicenter clinical examination, refractory medically essential tremor.New study on the predecessor substances Parkinson's disease.


Country research came into the


? Blood-brain barrier disruption-bulk density of blood brain barrier (BBB) has made the brain diseases pharmacological treatment, daunting, if not impossible, task.Which can quickly change thanks to Nathan McDannold, Ph.d. and his colleagues at Brigham and women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts.At symposium, they report pre-clinical safety on the provisional findings with localized, short-term disruptions in the BBB was achieved by using bursts, MR-guided focused ULTRASOUND and microbubbles research. they also to another with the same approach was used to deliver chemotherapy associated with metastatic breast cancer tumours as a whole, the results of pre-clinical research BBB.


? Ischemia Clot busting drugs line – such as tPA can no longer be necessary if the investigation is carried out together with the Hoelscher, m., University of California, San Diego proves to be successful. he shall report the first results by using the active ULTRASOUND transcranial MR-guided noninvasively share ("lyse") at present in vivo study blood clots of blood and restore blood flow in the brain.


? Stem cell activation –-be effective, the therapeutic stem cells is home to the target tissue, such as months, however, the existing flame. pathologies prevent most of the target tissue release enough chemo-Attractants draw stem cells in order to limit the number of successful health care institutes scientists explain how they have used to create a local version of the active ULTRASOUND chemo-Attractants, adding any bone marrow stromal called multi-homing instincts.


Polefrone says, the symposium also feature leading edge Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), pancreatic and liver, bone tumours, rotissa poor, targeted drug delivery and the various aspects of mutual recognition-guided active ULTRASOUND technology.

Active Ultrasound Surgery Foundation information
In 2006, and based in Charlottesville, Virginia, related to Ultrasound Surgery Foundation is dedicated to the treatments of patients in one of today's revolutionary and promising medical technologies research and by accelerating the Magnetic Resonance-guided noninvasive: related to Ultrasound (a) the work of the Foundation. do not think that is is motivated by a could become a bit invasive surgery, radiation therapy, ultimate, serve a viable option and provide accurate drug delivery-uses that may alleviate suffering, save lives and millions of patients ' recovery time quicken worldwide new platform.


By promoting communication, cooperation and coordination of the Foundation has become a central nexus, clinical researchers, manufacturers, and other stakeholders to philanthropists in the arena. Foundation at bringing basic knowledge through to clinical research grants and training doctors and researchers, symposia and workshops, hosting online informational resources preservation and Focused Ultrasound Centers of excellence in their work of the Foundation and the establishment of a. further information can be found from http://fusfoundation.org/
