Mechanical HIFU and immune checkpoint inhibition: toward clinical implementation [PDF]
Objective: Immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) has significantly advanced the field of immuno-oncology, yet not all patients benefit from this therapy. Combining ICI with other therapeutic modalities, including tumor ablation, is currently being explored ...

A robotic approach to HIFU based neurosurgery [PDF]
, 1998 The use of robotics in surgical interventions not only has the potential for minimally invasive surgical procedures but can improve performance and result in reduced operative time and post-operative trauma/recovery. This paper describes the concept of a robotic based High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system as a neuro-surgical tool for the destruction

An open source modular and scalable HIFU driver system
, 2017 High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) have been an attractive research topic for some time now. HIFU studies have started with single-element transducers, but using arrays provide the opportunity to scan the focal point electronically.

Numerical study of circular ablations using HIFU for atrial fibrillation
, 2019 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia of the heart, originating usually from ectopic atrial activity of the pulmonary veins. It is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, occurring in 1–2% of the general population.

Real-time monitoring of HIFU treatment using pulse inversion
, 2013 Ultrasound (US) imaging is widely used for the real-time guidance of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment at a relatively low cost. However, ultrasound image guided HIFU (USgHIFU) is limited in the real-time monitoring of HIFU treatment due

Acoustic sensing of renal stone fragmentation in extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy
, 2008 This thesis describes the research carried out by the author on the exploitation of acoustic emissions detected during extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (a non-invasive procedure for the treatment of urinary stones) to develop a new diagnostic system.

Monitoring HIFU lesion formation in vitro via the driving voltage
, 2006 During insonation of tissue and tissue-mimicking materials with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), bubbles formed at or near the focus of the HIFU source have been shown to cause fluctuations in the HIFU driving voltage and current amplitudes.
