Global Echotherapy: Market Outlook

Echotherapy is a new considerate treatment for non-cancerous thyroid nodules, varicose veins, and fibroadenoma of the breast. Echotherapy works with the therapeutic ultrasound, also known as high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). Echotherapy is completely non-invasive and doesn’t leave any scars, compared to other treatment methods such as radiofrequency ablation or laser treatment or surgery.

It is the only technique which treats from outside the body and therefore leaves no scar and allows the patient to resume normal activity immediately. Therapeutic ultrasound waves is used in echotherapy like the ones used during an ultrasound exam.

Nowadays, prostate cancer are mostly treated by echotherapy using high frequency ultrasound energy. Echotherapy is widely used in the field of interventional oncology owing to its favorable treatment margins, non-invasiveness, and low complication rates. Echotherapy offers several benefits over traditional ultrasound systems such as less bleeding and low procedural time.

Furthermore, the surgical procedures using these devices are typically minimally invasive, cost effective, and less painful. The demand for echotherapy is likely to grow with the increasing demand for minimally invasive therapy and rising technological advancements.
