Combining spectral and intensity data to identify regions of cavitation in ultrasound images; application to HIFU

The high power intensities in HTFU often result in bubble production, either through cavitation or boiling, which are believed to be a primary contributor to tissue necrosis Bubbles are associated with the appearance of bright hyperechoic regions in ultrasound B-mode images are observed from the bub...
