  • At Loyola Medicine, we're working to ease those fears with an innovative, incision-free treatment option called High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and a comprehensive survivorship program.

The article from MSN discusses how Loyola Medicine supports patients undergoing High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment for prostate cancer, as well as their comprehensive survivorship care. HIFU is a non-invasive procedure that uses focused ultrasound waves to destroy cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Loyola Medicine provides a multidisciplinary approach, ensuring patients receive personalized care plans that include pre-treatment consultations, the HIFU procedure itself, and extensive post-treatment follow-up. This includes managing side effects, monitoring for cancer recurrence, and offering psychological support. Additionally, their survivorship program focuses on helping patients transition from active treatment to recovery, addressing not only physical health but also emotional and social well-being, with services like rehabilitation, nutritional counseling, and support groups to aid in long-term health management and quality of life improvement.
