LYON, France, Nov. 17, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq:EDAP), the global leader in therapeutic ultrasound, announced today financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016, and provided an update on strategic and operational accomplishments.

“As recently announced, we achieved new installations in prestigious academic centers in the US such as Duke University Hospital, and we continue to actively work in building a strong academic and scientific presence in the US. This is part of our strategy to penetrate the US market with HIFU on a strong clinical basis with leading institutions around the country.”

Mr. Oczachowski concluded, “Recent publications in both the New England Journal of Medicine and European Urology are providing extremely encouraging indications that further position HIFU as a modern standard of care therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer. We will be pleased to further discuss these excellent results during our quarterly conference call on Thursday the 17th of November.”

About EDAP TMS SA

EDAP TMS SA markets today Ablatherm® for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for prostate tissue ablation in the U.S. and for treatment of localized prostate cancer in the rest of the world. HIFU treatment is shown to be a minimally invasive and effective option for prostatic tissue ablation with a low occurrence of side effects. Ablatherm-HIFU is generally recommended for patients with localized prostate cancer (stages T1-T2) who are not candidates for surgery or who prefer an alternative option, or for patients who failed radiotherapy treatment. Ablatherm-HIFU is approved for commercial distribution in Europe and some other countries including Mexico and Canada, and has received 510(k) clearance by the U.S. FDA. The Company also markets an innovative robot-assisted HIFU device, the Focal One®, dedicated to focal therapy of prostate cancer. Focal One® is CE marked but is not FDA approved. The Company also develops its HIFU technology for the potential treatment of certain other types of tumors. EDAP TMS SA also produces and distributes medical equipment (the Sonolith® lithotripters' range) for the treatment of urinary tract stones using extra-corporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) in most countries including Canada and the U.S. For more information on the Company, please visit http://www.edap-tms.com, and http://www.hifu-planet.com.
