Nguyen Minh Duc & Huynh Quang Huy

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment for prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) was utilized worldwide owing to benefits of non-invasive treatment, fast recovery time, and low rate of complications. There are many approaches of HIFU for BPH and prostate cancer under the guidance of real-time magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound and the location of treatment transducer inside the rectum or urethra. In this article, we aimed to introduce these approaches for clinicians to consider as an alternative treatment option.
