Attenuation and De-focusing During High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Therapy Through Peri-nephric Fat

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is an attractive therapy for kidney cancer, but its efficacy can be limited by heat deposition in the pre-focal tissues, notably in fat around the kidney (peri-nephric fat), the acoustic properties of which have not been well characterized. Measurements of at...
