The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is now offering a noninvasive treatment option for some patients with liver tumors.
Called histotripsy, the procedure uses focused ultrasound waves to destroy tumors without surgery, radiation, or incisions.
“With this technology, our specially trained doctors can target and destroy one or more tumors in a single, noninvasive outpatient procedure with little to no pain,” said Michelle W. Krause, MD, MPH, senior vice chancellor of UAMS Health and CEO of UAMS Medical Center.
Baptist Health Heart Institute/Arkansas Cardiology recently welcomed Michael Huber, MD, FACC. As a specialist in general cardiology, Huber brings extensive expertise in diagnosing and treating various cardiovascular conditions to the North Little Rock community.
Constance Chapman, MD, MPH, has joined the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology as a new practitioner and an assistant professor.
