3) Clinically diagnosed adenomyosis with MR(Magnetic resonance imaging) or US(Ultrasound) imaging
4) Clinical findings based on MR or US images suggest that focal adenomyosis is localized in the uterine adenomyoma
5) If the pain score on the dysmenorrhea index is 4 points or more
1 = Not at all
2 = A little bit
3 = Somewhat
4 = A great deal
5 = A very great deal
6) If you have not received any other treatment for adenomyosis within 3 months before the HIFU(High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) procedure
7) If you voluntarily agree to the clinical trial and you are willing to follow the test plan
8) Those who agree to use medically accepted contraception during the trial if there is a possibility of pregnancy.
*Medically acceptable contraceptive methods: condoms, oral contraception for at least 3 months, use of contraceptives for injection or use, placement of intrauterine contraceptive devices, etc.

3) Diffuse adenomyosis in which uterine adenomyoma is spread to the uterus
4) In case the pregnancy is positive or the pregnancy is desired
5) Severe systemic disease
6) Less than 25% of hematocrit
7) If there is a wide abdominal scar in the area where the ultrasound light passes
