2D ultrasound thermometry during thermal ablation with high-intensity focused ultrasound
The clinical use of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy for noninvasive tissue ablation has recently gained momentum. Guidance is provided by either magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or conventional B-mode ultrasound imaging, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
