Ultrasound Cancer Treatment: NOT surgery; THIS commonly used technique proves useful for cancer treatment

Imagine treating a tumor without a scalpel or incision – no bleeding, no post-surgical complications, no prolonged hospital stays! That is no longer science fiction. In recent years, medical researchers have shown that a common technology long used for imaging – ultrasound – can also play a direct therapeutic role in fighting cancer. Rather than just “seeing” tumors, ultrasound techniques can now destroy, ablate, or enhance the delivery of drugs to cancer tissues. Why is it ‘groundbreaking’? Because this shift could transform cancer care, offering options for patients who can’t undergo surgery. Ultrasound in medicine is most familiar for imaging – prenatal scans, checking organs, and guiding procedures. However, the ability of the medical technology goes far beyond just tumor de
