FUTURE MEDICAL IMAGING GROUP
MRgFUS or HIFU
What is HIFU? Focused Ultrasound describes the focusing of high frequency sound waves (in the 0.2 - 10 MHz range) for the purpose of heating and ablating tissue. Also known as High Intensity Focused Ultrasound or HIFU (due to the immense intensity at the focus), focused ultrasound treatments can be guided by ultrasound or MRI. Ultrasound image guidance is capable of providing feedback on changes in tissue density...

Tremor Treatment
Non surgical treatment of Tremor can now be performed for eligible patients, using our state-of-the-art equipment at FMIG. This allows us to perform brain surgery without any operation, to treat a range of neurological conditions, particularly tremor and Parkinson’s disease.
This technology delivers ultrasound energy deep in the brain with incredible precision, disrupting the abnormal activation pathways that cause tremor.
It is often an alternative to open brain surgery, including deep brain stimulation, and medications...
