Histotripsy is what the sound wave treatment is called. Histotripsy is a non-invasive, ultrasound-based treatment for liver tumors, including cancer. The procedure uses focused sound waves to precisely break down tumor tissue while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. It's considered a promising alternative to surgery and other invasive procedures for liver tumors. The procedure uses focused ultrasound waves to create microscopic bubbles in the tumor tissue. These bubbles cause a phenomenon called cavitation, where the tumor cells are disrupted and destroyed without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. Histotripsy is non-invasive, meaning it doesn't require incisions or surgery. This leads to faster recovery times and reduced risk of complications like infection and bleeding. Has anyone had histotripsy treatment? If so, can you share your experience? Thank you.
