Revolutionary Sound Wave Device Targets Liver Tumors in Noninvasive Cancer Therapy
A new device at Providence Mission Hospital in Orange County, called the HistoSonics Edison system, uses pulsed sound energy to target cancerous tumors, offering hope for patients like Michael Farris, who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. The technology aims to blast tumor cells, potentially causing regression or shrinking of tumors, and is considered a groundbreaking advancement in cancer therapy. Farris, one of the first patients to receive this treatment, emphasizes the importance of early cancer screening and hopes to live as long as possible to enjoy time with his sons.
