Brain tumor treatment HIFU ablation system EXABLATE

MRI-guided

Insightec is the first and only company to bring to market a Focused Ultrasound platform for treating Essential Tremor and Parkinson’s Disease – it’s called Exablate Neuro. Our disruptive technology can deliver up to 1,024 ultrasound waves across the skull to precisely ablate a target deep in the brain. This incision-free treatment is performed in the MRI suite typically on an outpatient basis.1 During a Focused Ultrasound treatment, the treating physician sits at a computer in the MRI control room, using a mouse instead of scalpel, to expertly create a lesion. Treatment is guided by MR imaging for patient-specific treatment planning, real-time thermal feedback, and continuous treatment monitoring. HELMET SHAPED ULTRASOUND TRANSDUCER Phase array, piezoceramic helmet with 1024 elements at a frequency of 650 KHz ADVANCED FOCUSING ALGORITHMS Adjust according to patient’s skull to ensure beams converge at target PRECISE FOCAL SPOT Location controlled in size (2-5mm) and location (<1mm accuracy)
