The Localized Elasticity Measurement for Coagulation Detection during HIFU Therapy

, 2013
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment is one of minimally invasive treatment methods for cancer. To control a beam position and dose amount of HIFU, visualizing inside of the body during treatment is essentially required. Our objective is to

HIFU, Laser and Micro HIFU Research and Reports in Focused Ultrasounds for Face Remodelling

Journal of Obesity & Weight Loss Therapy, 2016
High Intensity focused Ultrasounds (HIFU) is a novel therapeutic method for local hyperthermia and mechanical action on the tissue. The Ultrasonic waves emitted by a transducer propagate through the skin using a coupling gel to the desired target location.
