Our data showed that MR-HIFU seemed to be a safe procedure. The AE rate after the treatment is relatively low. According to the obtained data it seems that the occurrence of AEs does not depend on the technical parameters of the procedure and the volume, position and location of UFs. Further prospective, randomized studies and with long follow-up are necessary to confirm the final conclusions.
