Principles of focused ultrasound [PDF]

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2018
Focused ultrasound (FUS/HIFU) relies on ablation of pathological tissues by delivering a sufficiently high level of acoustic energy in situ of the human body. Magnetic Resonance guided FUS (MRgFUS/HIFU) and Ultrasound guided (USgFUS/HIFU) are image guided techniques combined with therapeutic FUS for monitoring purposes.

Ultrasound segmentation using U-Net: learning from simulated data and testing on real data [PDF]

, 2019
Segmentation of ultrasound images is an essential task in both diagnosis and image-guided interventions given the ease-of-use and low cost of this imaging modality. As manual segmentation is tedious and time consuming, a growing body of research has focused on the development of automatic segmentation algorithms.

Microbubble-Enhanced Focused Ultrasound for Infiltrating Gliomas [PDF]

Biomedicines
Infiltrating gliomas are challenging to treat, as the blood-brain barrier significantly impedes the success of therapeutic interventions. While some clinical trials for high-grade gliomas have shown promise, patient outcomes remain poor.
