Real-time passive acoustic monitoring of HIFU-induced tissue damage.
Thermal ablation by high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) shows great promise as a noninvasive cancer therapy. This work proposes a novel method of real-time HIFU treatment monitoring that uses the passively monitored acoustic signal emanating from the focus during HIFU exposure. We performed 212...
