The FDA approval was based on the #HOPE4LIVER trial in Europe. clinicaltrials.gov/study/NC...

The manufacturer HistoSonics writes:

"The trial participants suffered [....] metastatic tumors to the liver from the colon, rectum, breast, and other primary origins." - This means the therapy is approved for liver mets from prostate cancer too.

A machine that uses histotripsy, a technique that uses sound waves to break down tumors, as been approved to treat liver tumors by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

It uses targeted sound waves – like an ultrasound machine – to form microbubbles within the tumor.

And just step on them like you do on bubble wrap

I’m wondering if you can choose the sound waves? Was thinking on the lines of Metallica?
