Ultrasound is emerging as an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer. HIFU uses focused heat to target and destroy cancer cells, and there is minimal harm to the body. We report on its potential.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) is an innovative technique that has emerged as a promising treatment option for pancreatic tumors, particularly pancreatic ...

A novel approach developed by scientists, including Rice University chemist James Tour, could transform treatment for ...

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most challenging forms of cancer to detect and treat. It often remains undetected until it reaches an advanced stage, making it difficult to treat effectively.

Pancreatic cancer is hard to detect and diagnose for many reasons ... MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), EUS (endoscopic ultrasound), and ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography), among ...

Although a thorough history and radiographic findings often suggest a particular diagnosis, endoscopic ultrasound-guided ... follow a cystic pancreatic neoplasm. It is more common, 5-10 percent, for ...

evaluating proprietary High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) technology for the treatment of pancreatic tumors. “The initiation of the PULS Trial represents a major milestone in efforts to ...

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fiducial placement is an emerging technique that plays a crucial role in enhancing the precision of radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer. This method involves ...

Background and Aim: We report our single-centre experience with endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) of solid pancreatic lesions with regard to clinical utility ...

The device delivers ultrasound energy to the patient’s pancreas and generates localized heat of up to 100 degrees Celsius that destroys cancer cells in the organ. Other types of ultrasound waves ...
