A method for delivering therapeutic ultrasound to a patient to ensure full treatment of targeted tissue can include performing preoperative imaging of a first volume of targeted tissue of a patient using an ultrasound probe and creating a first treatment plan. Energy can be delivered into at least a distal portion of the first volume. The amount of energy delivered can be sufficient to produce swelling of tissue in the first volume. The first volume can be reimaged to identify if any changes have occurred in at least one of a size, shape and location of the first volume of the targeted tissue. A second treatment plan can be designed to treat a second volume of tissue equivalent to the changed first volume of targeted tissue. Energy can be delivered into the second volume of the targeted tissue.
