Identifying cavitation regions using spectral and intensity data; application to HIFU

<p>The high power intensities in HIFU 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 bright hyperechoic regions in ultrasound B-mode images. As the only changes observed...
