A PVDF Receiver for Acoustic Monitoring of Microbubble-Mediated Ultrasound Brain Therapy

A PVDF Receiver for Acoustic Monitoring of Microbubble-Mediated Ultrasound Brain Therapy

The real-time monitoring of spectral characteristics of microbubble (MB) acoustic emissions permits the prediction of increases in blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability and of tissue damage in MB-mediated focused ultrasound (FUS) brain therapy. Single-element passive cavitation detectors provide li...
