The Asian perspective on HIFU [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2021
High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) uses about 800 times the diagnostic ultrasound power, which converges at a focal point to deliver energy above 60 degrees Celsius resulting in cell death by means of coagulation necrosis and cavitation destruction.
