Focused Ultrasound is a breakthrough technology resulting from the innovative marriage of high intensity focused ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging: 
• High Intensity Focused Ultrasound -- Multiple intersecting beams of ultrasound energy are concentrated with extreme precision and accuracy on a point smaller than a grain of rice deep in the body, much like a magnifying glass is used to focus beams of sunlight on a single point to burn a hole in a leaf
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging -- For identifying and targeting the tissue to be treated, guiding the treatment interactively in real time, and providing immediate confirmation on the effectiveness of the therapy.

Focused Ultrasound could be:
• The ultimate in noninvasive surgery 
• A replacement for or complement to most radiation therapy 
• A way to deliver drugs in high concentrations precisely to the point in the body where needed 
• The means to dissolve blood clots and restore circulation through blocked vessels   

Focused Ultrasound has the potential to revolutionize the way a variety of serious medical conditions are managed, including:
• Eradicating benign and malignant  brain, breast, prostate, liver and other tumors
• Converting metastatic cancer from a lethal condition to a chronic, controllable disorder
• Reversing  life-threatening or disabling deficits from stroke
• Alleviating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and epilepsy
• Treating a variety of other disorders including atrial fibrillation and diabetes

From the patient's perspective, this technology offers many advantages over conventional therapies, including:
• It can be performed on an outpatient basis
• Requires no general anesthesia or incisions
• Results in little or no discomfort and few complications
• Avoids toxic side effects of drug and radiation therapy
• Can usually be accomplished in a single session in contrast to multiple radiation therapy treatments
• Produces an immediate and verifiable effect
• Allows for more rapid recovery  


Today, Focused Ultrasound is in the early stages of its development. Every day that this technology is not in widespread use is another day of unnecessary death, disability and suffering for countless patients. The Focused Ultrasound Surgery Foundation was founded in 2006 to help these people by shortening the time from technology development to adoption as the standard of care, by:
• Organizing, coordinating and funding research leading to new applications
• Establishing collaboration between the R&amp;D initiatives in academia and industry globally
• Funding training fellowships for clinicians and scientists
• Establishing new Centers of Excellence -- luminary sites for research, training and patient care
• Supporting meetings, symposia and workshops
• Facilitating regulatory approval and third-party reimbursement
• Increasing awareness of what has been termed &quot;medicine’s best kept secret&quot;.
