Selective Ablation of Cancer Cells with Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Ultrasound can be focused into deep tissues with millimeter precision to perform noninvasive ablative therapy for diseases such as cancer. In most cases, this ablation uses high intensity ultrasound to deposit nonselective thermal or mechanical energy at

Respiration based steering for high intensity focused ultrasound liver ablation [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2013
PurposeRespiratory motion makes hepatic ablation using high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFO) challenging. Previous HIFU liver treatment had required apnea induced during general anesthesia. We describe and test a system that allows treatment of the liver in the presence of breathing motion.MethodsMapping a signal from an external respiratory bellow ...
