The Asian perspective on HIFU [PDF]

International 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.

Mechanical high-intensity focused ultrasound creates unique tumor debris enhancing dendritic cell-induced T cell activation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
IntroductionIn situ tumor ablation releases a unique repertoire of antigens from a heterogeneous population of tumor cells. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a completely noninvasive ablation therapy that can be used to ablate tumors either by ...

Lead-Free HIFU Transducers

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2022
High-intensity focused ultrasound transducers operating at 4 MHz based on lead-free piezoceramics from the sodium bismuth titanate (NBT) family are described. First, the piezoelectric material (Pz12X) is evaluated from the standpoint of transducer design and its important characteristics, including temperature dependance of several parameters such as ...

T-lymphocytes from focused ultrasound ablation subsequently mediate cellular antitumor immunity after adoptive cell transfer immunotherapy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundOur previous studies found that high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) stimulated tumor-specific T cells in a mouse H22 tumor model, and adoptive transfer of the T cells from HIFU-treated mice could subsequently elicit stronger inhibition on ...
