Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main endpoint of this feasibility study is treatment accuracy of MR-HIFU in<br /><br>breast cancer patients using a dedicated MR-HIFU breast system.<br /><br>Accuracy of treatment will be assessed by comparing the ablated volumes by HIFU<br /><br>to three parameters related to the success of HIFU treatment. These parameters<br /><br>are 1) MR thermal dose predicted treatment volumes 2) treatment planning<br /><br>volumes and 3) histopathology. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>A secondary endpoint of this study is safety of MR-HIFU in breast cancer<br /><br>patients using a dedicated MR-HIFU breast system.<br /><br>To determine the safety, the following endpoints will be recorded: any minor<br /><br>complications or adverse events that result from HIFU treatment. Pain during<br /><br>HIFU treatment will be recorded according to the Numerical Representative Scale<br /><br>(NRS)</p><br>
