How Much Does High intensity focused ultrasound ablation (HIFU) Cost in Germany?

The cost of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation in Germany typically ranges from $12,000 to $20,000. Prices vary depending on the clinic, the specialist’s experience, the type of HIFU device used (such as Sonablate or Ablatherm), and the complexity of the case. In the United States, the average cost is $35,000 (per American Urological Association). That means HIFU ablation in Germany is about 54% less than in the U.S.

German clinics usually include pre-procedure consultation, MRI or ultrasound imaging, the HIFU procedure itself, anesthesia, and post-procedure observation. Follow-up visits are often part of the package. In the U.S., imaging, anesthesia, and follow-up care are frequently billed separately from the procedure. Always confirm with your chosen clinic which services are included in the total price.

It was a great help to have somebody with me during the day of the tests, sorting my papers and dealing with translation
Having made an initial enquiry on line, I was impressed by the follow up and treatment proposals and costs I did some research and determined that I needed to get the very best medical attention It was a great help to have somebody with me during the day of the tests, sorting my papers and dealing with translation. Absolutely invaluable Everything was explained to me in detail My only comments are that it would have been good to have been informed about the number of nights stay in the hospital I expected an overnight stay after the procedure In fact for good reasons it was a total of three nights

"Everything is high
Everything is high. The doctor came before the operation (did ablation) and said that it gives 99%, which will be a good result. Chamber for one person, everything you need is there, everything is thought out. Coordinator Pavel answered all my questions very promptly.
