The goal of this prospective, single arm, non-randomized study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using the Exablate Model 4000 Type 2 "Neuro-System" as a tool to serially disrupt the blood brain barrier in a temporary and localized fashion in patients with breast cancer and brain metastases. Up to 10 patients will be recruited at Sunnybrook. Patients will be consented, screened, undergo up to 6 study Exablate BBBD treatment cycles, every 2-3 weeks based on their trastuzumab regimen. Follow-up will continue through 12 weeks following the last BBBD post-treatment and the subject's participation in the study will be complete. Data will be collected to establish the basic safety of this type of treatment as the basis for later studies to evaluate clinical efficacy.
