Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Analysis of efficacy:<br>MR-HIFU will be considered as an effective treatment modality for DTF patients if a success is observed in >3 of the 13 patients. If a success is observed in =3 of the 13 DTF patients, it is concluded that MR-HIFU is not an effective treatment strategy in these patients, and should not be further investigated. Otherwise, this study will conclude that this treatment strategy is effective and sufficiently promising, and warrants further investigation in this patient population. The primary outcome will be presented in absolute numbers and proportions.
