Measure
Treated Leiomyomas
Pre- or peri-menopausal women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who desire a uterine sparing procedure. Patients must have completed child bearing prior to enrolling in this study. Patients underwent a single Magnetic Resonanc Imaging-guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU) therapy session as an outpatient procedure, and were followed up for 30 days following treatment.

Adverse Events/Subject Resulting From HIFU Treatment of the Uterine Fibroids
2.6 Adverse Event/subject
Standard Deviation 2.6

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At baseline and at 30 days following treatment

Mean absolute change in the Symptom Severity Score (SSS) of the Uterine Fibroid Symptoms - Quality of Life (UFS-QoL) questionnaire after fibroid treatment with HIFU. The SSS is a scale from 0-100, where 0 corresponds to no symptoms and 100 corresponds to the most severe symptoms.
