Methods The patients with uterine leiomyornata who had born children were chosen as the eandidates, The high intensity focused ultrasound tumor therapeutic system was applied to focus the extraeorporeal ultrasound inside the uterine lieomyomata. The real-time two-dimensional ultrasonography was used to guide the location of the focal field and monitor the ablating procedure. The uterus ultrasonography, myomx related signs,syrnptoms were performed for follow-up before and after HIFU treatment.
