Therapeutic bubbles: basic principles of cavitation in therapeutic ultrasound
At therapeutic intensities, the application of ultrasound is often accompanied by bubble activity. Bubbles concentrate (by orders of magnitude) acoustic energy and convert that acoustic energy into mechanical, thermal, chemical or frequency‐shifted acoustic energy. Depending on the specific clinical...
