High-intensity focused ultrasound of uterine fibroids and adenomyosis: maneuver technique for bowel loops located inside the treatment window

Nguyen Minh Duc* & Huynh Quang Huy

Appearance of bowel loops in the sonication beam path during high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation therapy is a problematic condition. Filling bladder, filling rectum and, emptying bladder (BRB) maneuver technique might be helpful in producing a non-bowel treatment window for HIFU ablation of uterine fibroids and adenomyosis and ensuring the safety profile for patients.
