Histotripsy is a novel form of focused ultrasound that uses high amplitude, very short pulses to create a “bubble cloud” that is designed to mechanically destroy and liquefy targeted liver tumors. These bubble clouds form and collapse in microseconds, creating mechanical forces strong enough to destroy tissue at cellular and sub-cellular levels in a non-invasive and non-thermal method.
。这些气泡云在几微秒内形成并塌陷,产生足够强的机械力,以非侵入性和非热方法破坏细胞和亚细胞水平的组织。
Histotripsy offers a promising alternative to treatments such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, which often have significant side effects..
组织碎石术为手术,放疗和化疗等治疗提供了一种有前途的替代方法,这些治疗通常会产生明显的副作用。
The Series D funding will be used to accelerate category defining advancements to its non-invasive histotripsy platforms, support commercial growth in the US and in planned global markets, and initiate the company’s innovative, prospective BOOMBOX Master Study that will evaluate HistoSonics’ Edison System for the treatment of liver tumors across multidisciplinary users.
D系列资金将用于加速其非侵入性组织学平台的类别定义进步,支持美国和计划中的全球市场的商业增长,并启动该公司的创新性,前瞻性BOOMBOX Master研究,该研究将评估HistoSonics的Edison系统,用于跨多学科用户治疗肝肿瘤。
The Edison Histotripsy System was granted FDA De Novo clearance in October 2023. HistoSonics is currently partnering with leading institutions across the US and internationally in developing multi-disciplinary histotripsy liver programs..
