Tissue specific considerations in implementing high intensity focussed ultrasound under magnetic resonance imaging guidance

High-intensity focused ultrasound can ablate a target permanently, leaving tissues through which it passes thermally unaffected. When delivered under magnetic resonance (MR) imaging guidance, the change in tissue relaxivity on heating is used to monitor the temperatures achieved. Different tissue ty...
