Symposium on HIFU for prostate Cancer

Yesterday we celebrated a symposium on HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) in hotel Hesperia Finisterre, in La Coruña, during the Annual meeting of the Spanish Urological Association. The panelists were Dr. Sebastian Rogenhofer, from Regensburg, Germany (in the center of the image), Dr. Ander Astobieta, from Bilbado and me.


I presented the scientific basis of the treatment of prostate cancer with HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) and I also explained the training system for new users. Dr. Astobieta, from Bilbao, summarized the spanish experience and Dr. Rogenhofer commented on the results in his Hospital in Regensburg, Germany after 11 years using this technology.
