We reported 98% growth in HIFU sales for the second quarter 2019 compared to second quarter 2018, driven by the sale of five HIFU devices, including three in the U.S. Our revenue performance was also driven by strong growth in HIFU treatment revenue, which increased 51% in the quarter. We look forward to reporting our full second quarter financial and operating results during our earnings call on Thursday, August 29.”
