Influence of temperature-dependent acoustic and thermal parameters and nonlinear harmonics on the prediction of thermal lesion under HIFU ablation

According to the traditional method of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment, the acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters of constant temperature (room temperature or body temperature) are used to predict thermal lesion. Based on the nonlinear spherical beam equation (SBE) and Pe...

description According to the traditional method of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment, the acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters of constant temperature (room temperature or body temperature) are used to predict thermal lesion. Based on the nonlinear spherical beam equation (SBE) and Pennes bio-heat transfer equation, and a new acoustic-thermal coupled model is proposed. The constant and temperature-dependent acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters are used to predict thermal lesion, and the predicted lesion area are compared with each other. Moreover, the relationship between harmonic amplitude ratio (P2/P1) and thermal lesion is studied. Combined with the known experimental data of acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters of biological tissue and data fitting method, the relationship between acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters and temperature is obtained; and the thermal lesion simulation calculation is carried out by using the acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters under constant temperature and temperature- dependent acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters, respectively. The simulation results show that under the same irradiation condition, the thermal lesion predicted by temperature-dependent acoustic and thermal characteristic parameters is larger than that predicted by traditional method, and the thermal lesion increases with the decrease of harmonic amplitude ratio.
