EDAP Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance for Latest Evolution of Focal One Robotic HIFU
AUSTIN, Texas, November 20, 2025 - EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq: EDAP), the global leader in robotic energy-based therapies, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for new ultrasound imaging and workflow enhancements to the Focal One High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) system, further strengthening the company's market leadership in robotic focal therapy for prostate cancer.
The 510(k) clearance introduces advanced ultrasound imaging, streamlined treatment planning, and an optimized user-interface to the Focal One i launched earlier this year.
