28 Apr
Summary
- New ultrasound technique targets digestive endometriosis with rectal involvement.
- A team in Lyon developed a method to avoid major surgical removal.
- The Focal One probe uses focused ultrasound waves for precise treatment.
A novel technique pioneered in Lyon, France, by Professor Gil Dubernard and his team promises to significantly alter treatment for digestive endometriosis involving the rectum. This innovative approach is designed to help the majority of affected women avoid the need for major surgical removal procedures.
The method employs the Focal One probe, a sophisticated device that delivers focused ultrasound waves. These waves are precisely directed at the problematic areas within the digestive system, offering a targeted and potentially less invasive therapeutic solution compared to traditional surgical interventions.
