Focal Ablation Therapy for Prostate Cancer: A Literature Review [PDF]
The incidence and mortality of prostate cancer (PCa) are gradually increasing. Traditional treatments for PCa may result numerous side effects and complications that affect patients’ quality of life. Furthermore, older patients frequently cannot tolerate

Influence of shear waves on transcranial ultrasound propagation in cortical brain regions [PDF]
Transcranial ultrasound applications require accurate simulations to predict intracranial acoustic pressure fields. The current gold standard typically consists of calculating a longitudinal ultrasound wave propagation using a fluid skull model, which is based on full head CT images for retrieving the skull's geometry and elastic constants.

Intravital imaging and cavitation monitoring of antivascular ultrasound in tumor microvasculature [PDF]
Focused ultrasound stimulated microbubbles have been shown to be capable of inducing blood flow shutdown and necrosis in a range of tissue types in an approach termed antivascular ultrasound or mechanical ablation. In oncology, this approach has demonstrated tumor growth inhibition, and profound synergistic antitumor effects when combined with ...

An element-wise approach for simulating transcranial MRI-guided focused ultrasound thermal ablation [PDF]
This work explored an element-wise approach to model transcranial MRI-guided focused ultrasound (TcMRgFUS) thermal ablation, a noninvasive approach to neurosurgery. Each element of the phased array transducer was simulated individually and could be simultaneously loaded into computer memory, allowing for rapid calculation of the pressure field for ...

Ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for hyperparathyroidism: current status and prospects
Background Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is classified into primary HPT (PHPT), secondary HPT (SHPT), tertiary HPT (THPT), and pseudohyperparathyroidism. Parathyroid surgery is generally reserved for patients with symptomatic PHPT and asymptomatic patients ...
