Numerical simulations of heating patterns and tissue temperature response due to high-intensity focused ultrasound.

The results of this paper show-for an existing high intensity, focused ultrasound (HIFU) transducer-the importance of nonlinear effects on the space/time properties of wave propagation and heat generation in perfused liver models when a blood vessel also might be present. These simulations are based...
