About EDAP TMS SA
EDAP TMS SA develops and markets Ablatherm, the most advanced and clinically
proven choice for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of
localized prostate cancer. HIFU treatment is shown to be a minimally invasive
and effective treatment option with a low occurrence of side effects.
Ablatherm-HIFU is generally recommended for patients with localized prostate
cancer (stages T1-T2) who are not candidates for surgery or who prefer an
alternative option, or for patients who failed radiotherapy treatment. Approved
in Europe as a treatment for prostate cancer, Ablatherm-HIFU (High Intensity
Focused Ultrasound) is currently undergoing evaluation in a multicenter U.S.
Phase II/III clinical trial under an Investigational Device Exemption granted by
the FDA. The Company also is developing this technology for the potential
treatment of certain other types of tumors. EDAP TMS SA also produces and
commercializes medical equipment for treatment of urinary tract stones using
