This reimbursement took effect on July 1, 2023.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Receipt of appropriate reimbursement from the Swiss healthcare authorities is another acknowledgment of the growing, worldwide acceptance of HIFU as an effective treatment option for men diagnosed with prostate cancer,\u201d remarked Ryan Rhodes, Chief Executive Officer of EDAP TMS. \u201cWe expect this change will result in a growing awareness of HIFU as an important treatment option in Switzerland, which should lead to more patient demand for Focal One\u00ae Robotic HIFU procedures. Additionally, increasing access to Focal One in Switzerland may signal greater momentum in Europe for hospitals and payors to support HIFU as an integral part of the comprehensive management of prostate cancer.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThanks to the new reimbursement of HIFU in Switzerland, Swiss patients with prostate cancer now have greater access to a precise treatment option with low side effects,\u201d said Dr. Daniel Eberli, Professor of Urology, Director of Department of Urology at the University Hospital Zurich who led the initiative to secure reimbursement for HIFU in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Switzerland has many hospitals ranked amongst the best 250 in the world according to Newsweek\u2019s \u201cThe World\u2019s Best Hospitals 2023\u201d. Included in this list is the University of Zurich, the leading innovation center for HIFU in the country and a Focal One site. The University of Zurich is also a member of the League of European Research Universities, placing it among Europe&#8217;s most prestigious research institutions. Switzerland is also a member of the DACH market region (including Germany, Austria and Switzerland) with over 100 million total inhabitants.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About EDAP TMS SA<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">A recognized leader in the global therapeutic ultrasound market.
