Does the presence of blood flow signals in uterine fibroids indicate cancer transformation?

Patient's question:

Subserosal anterior wall visible 6047mm, 1313mm hypoechoic nodule, subserosal posterior wall visible 3541mm hypoechoic nodule, CDFI: visible band-like blood flow signal at the periphery, no

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, the most advanced method for treating uterine fibroids at present is the use of high-intensity focused ultrasound thermal ablation (HIFU, also known as the "ultrasound knife"). HIFU is a physical heat therapy that uses focused sound waves to generate a 100-degree high temperature instantly to inactivate fibroid cells, with no impact on surrounding tissues. It is a non-surgical, painless procedure with a low recurrence rate. During the course of tamoxifen treatment, it is essential to closely monitor the thickness of the endometrium. If necessary, a D&C (dilation and curettage) may be performed, or the uterus and ovaries may be completely removed.
