[edit] Proposed merge with Hifu

Copied from talk:hifu:

I suggest to merge this article with HIFU as it covers the same subject. 21:04, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
I agree, both technically and stylistically (acronyms should only be fully capitalized). 16:47, 15 Jun 2006 (UTC)
I also agree.
  • Agree - Jack (talk) 23:33, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I did the merge. Anthony Appleyard 17:59, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed merge with Magnetic Resonance guided Focused Ultrasound

Copied from talk:Magnetic Resonance guided Focused Ultrasound:

I suggest that this article should be merged with HIFU. I see no good reason to keep these articles separate. Ekem 21:07, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Agree - Jack (talk) 23:33, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Agree with both. --WS 19:47, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I did the merge. Anthony Appleyard 17:59, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved from Talk:Mrgfus

If the Wikipedia reader's interests are of concern, this material should be merged with Magnetic Resonance Imaging or with Ultrasound (or at both), as an example of usage of the concepts. As "Mr. Goofus" it's unlikely ever to be seen. --Wetman 08:22, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Approved by FDA

There's an inconsistency with the date of approval HIFU treatment for uterine fibroids by FDA. The page states 'October 2004', while the page Uterine fibroids says "This technique is relatively new; it was approved by the FDA in 2005." Please take care of it. (I don't feel I'm familiar with the topic to make corrections by myself.) 62.63.84.113 19:34, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lens?

In the section on Aiming there is a link to the lens disambiguation page. I am attempting to clean up the incoming links to this page but I don't know where you want this page to point? lens (optics)? The best I can tell such a setup creates a large bubble of gas with a different speed of sound creating a diffraction at the boundry. If so lens (optics) would probably be correct. Maybe someone should create a lens (acoustic) page? Speed8ump 22:00, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
