The coupling of waves between the piezoelectric generators, detectors, and propagating
media is challenging due to mismatch in the acoustic properties. The mismatch leads to the …

Ultrasound (US) is one of the most frequently used diagnostic methods. It is a non-invasive,
comparably inexpensive imaging method with a broad spectrum of applications, which can …

A major challenge in neuroscience is to reliably activate individual neurons, particularly
those in deeper brain regions. Current optogenetic approaches require invasive surgical …

Passive cavitation detection has been an instrumental technique for measuring cavitation
dynamics, elucidating concomitant bioeffects, and guiding ultrasound therapies. Recently …

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

This paper reviews ultrasound imaging methods for the guidance of therapeutic focused
ultrasound (USgFUS), with emphasis on real-time preclinical methods. Guidance is …

Purpose To demonstrate feasibility of monitoring high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)
