Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with High Intensity Ultrasound as a complementary treatment to Folfirinox?
My dad has just started chemo, but has been told his tumour in operable.
In have read some positive things about HIFU in Japan and other countries, and Oxford are currently running a Phase II trial.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Esoteric and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm not a member of this forum but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your dad's diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
