• Initial diagnosis of localized prostate cancer (T1c or T2a) with the following characteristics:
• Only one Target tumor on MRI on a maximum of 2 contigous sextants. Case allowed:
• If more than one target tumor on MRI, only one of them must be confirmed by targeted prostate biopsies.
• If no target tumor on MRI, only 2 contigous sextants must be positive on prostate biopsies
• A maximum tumor length> 3 mm or at least 3 positive biopsies on all biopsies performed (randomized biopsies and/or MRI/Ultrasound Fusion-Guided Prostate Biopsy).
• Gleason 6 score (risk group 1 of the D'Amico classification).
• Tumor positioned so that a safety distance of at least 9 mm from external sphincter can be defined during HIFU-FOCAL treatment in prostate tissue around the target.
• PSA ≤ 15ng / ml.
• Patient affiliated with health insurance or beneficiary of an equivalent plan.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Contraindications to treatment with HIFU-F:
• Tumor not accessible.
• Multiple intra prostatic calcifications inducing, on ultrasound, a shadow cone in the prostate preventing the penetration of ultrasound and thus the realization of the treatment.
• History of pelvic irradiation
• Presence of an implant (stent, catheter) located less than 1 cm from the treatment area.
• Fistula of the urinary tract or rectum.
• Anal or rectal fibrosis, anal or rectal stenosis or other abnormalities making it difficult to insert the Focal One® probe.
• Anatomical abnormality of the rectum or rectal mucosa.
• Patient with artificial sphincter, penile prosthesis or intra prostatic implant, eg stent.
• History of intestinal inflammatory pathology.
• Uro-genital infection in progress (the infection to be treated before HIFU treatment).
• Anterior surgery at the level of the anus or rectum making the introduction of the probe impossible.
• Allergy to latex.
• Thickness of the rectal wall> 10mm.
• TURP indication. Bladder neck incision is allowed .
• Patient with a medical contraindication to Sonovue® injection.
• Patient with a medical contraindication on MRI.
• Patient already treated for prostate cancer (hormone therapy, radiotherapy, surgery).
• History of uncontrolled cancer and / or treated for less than 5 years (with the exception of basal cell skin cancer).
• History of sclerosis of the bladder neck or urethral stenosis.
• Patient with a several bleeding risk according to medical advice (patient with oral anticoagulant therapy must receive an alternative therapy if randomized in HIFU-F arm).
• Patients with unstable neurological pathology.
• Patient who has been treated for a therapeutic trial within 30 days of enrollment or who wishes to participate in an ongoing study that may interfere with this study.
• Legal person protected by law.
