Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2007
The joining of high-intensity focused ultrasound with high-resolution MR guidance has created a system that can produce tissue destruction deep within solid organs without any invasion. Accurate targeting and thermal mapping are provided by MRI and allow very accurate deposition of energy in tissues that can be altered in response to near real-time ...

Treating the Brain With Focused Ultrasound
IEEE Pulse, 2023Focused ultrasound is an early stage, noninvasive therapy with the potential to treat a range of medical conditions. Like diagnostic ultrasound, it uses sound waves above the range of human hearing. But its purpose is to interact with tissues in the body, rather than just produce images of them.

Focused Ultrasound for Pediatric Diseases
Pediatrics, 2022Focused ultrasound (FUS) is a noninvasive therapeutic technology with multiple pediatric clinical applications. The ability of focused ultrasound to target tissues deep in the body without exposing children to the morbidities associated with conventional surgery, interventional procedures, or radiation offers significant advantages.

Focused ultrasound: focused on tremor
Expert Review of Medical DevicesMagnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) has emerged as a leading noninvasive therapy for tremor, offering a precise, lesion-based alternative to deep brain stimulation (DBS) and traditional lesioning techniques. By using phased ultrasound arrays to focus energy at intracranial targets, MRgFUS allows for real-time visualization and ...

High-intensity focused ultrasound
2012Focal therapy (FT) is an emerging noncancerous tissue preservation strategy that aims for treating only the areas of cancer. FT has attracted attention over the several years in the field of treatment of localized prostate cancer. On the other hand, the use of minimally invasive ablative techniques in the management of patients with low-grade and ...

Focusing ultrasound in biological media
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 1989The authors present a formulation for calculating the field distributions for an ultrasonic imaging system when focusing in biological media. A biological medium is characterized in terms of its complex and frequency-dependent compressibility that, in turn, depends on the medium relaxation time and specific heat ratio.
