InSightec developed the ExAblate system for non-surgical treatments using MR guided focused ultrasound technology. Commercially approved for treating uterine fibroids over 6000 patients have been treated globally. This 3D animations shows how a patient is positioned in the MR and heat is generated by focusing ultrasound waves, ablating tissue only at the focal point - an effect similar to a magnifying glass used to focus the sun's energy on a single point.
