Histotripsy is a relatively new therapeutic ultrasound technology to mechanically liquefy
tissue into subcellular debris using high-amplitude focused ultrasound pulses. In contrast to …

Applications of ultrasound in medicine for therapeutic purposes have been accepted and
beneficial uses of ultrasonic biological effects for many years. Low‐power ultrasound of …

Tumor ablation technologies, such as radiofrequency-, cryo-or high-intensity focused
ultrasound (HIFU) ablation will destroy tumor tissue in a minimally invasive manner. Ablation …

Histotripsy is a focused ultrasound therapy for non-invasive tissue ablation. Unlike thermally
ablative forms of therapeutic ultrasound, histotripsy relies on the mechanical action of …

In high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy, an ultrasound beam is focused within
the body to locally affect the targeted site without damaging intervening tissues. The most …

Histotripsy is a therapy that focuses short-duration, high-amplitude pulses of ultrasound to
incite a localized cavitation cloud that mechanically breaks down tissue. To investigate the …

Power Ultrasonics: Applications of High-Intensity Ultrasound, Second Edition provides a
comprehensive reference on the fundamentals, processing, engineering, medical, food and …

Purpose: Immunotherapy promises unprecedented benefits to patients with cancer.
However, the majority of cancer types, including high-risk neuroblastoma, remain …

In high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) applications, tissue may be thermally necrosed
by heating, emulsified by cavitation, or, as was recently discovered, emulsified using …

Since its inception about two decades ago, histotripsy–a non-thermal mechanical tissue
ablation technique–has evolved into a spectrum of methods, each with distinct potentiating …
