Interaction of mechanical and thermal lesions induced by high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is emerging as an effective therapeutic modality in both thermal ablation for solid tumor/cancer therapy and soft-tissue fragmentation. Mechanical as well as thermal effects play an important role in the HIFU treatment simultaneously. Further understanding th...
