Modeling HMI Measurement of HIFU Lesion Formation with Temperature-Dependent Tissue Properties
Monitoring tissue stiffness changes during HIFU lesion formation may be possible by measuring the motion induced by the amplitude-modulation of the HIFU beam. As a lesion forms both the stiffness and the acoustic absorption increase. Nominally the increase in tissue stiffness results in less motion,...
