High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is gaining rapid clinical acceptance as a treatment
modality enabling non-invasive tissue heating and ablation for numerous applications. HIFU …

Biomedical acoustics is rapidly evolving from a diagnostic modality into a therapeutic tool,
and acoustic cavitation is often the common denominator in a wide range of new therapeutic …

Acoustic cavitation has been shown to play a key role in a wide array of novel therapeutic
ultrasound applications. This paper presents a brief discussion of the physics of thermally …

Nonlinear behavior of bubbles, and most importantly 1 2 1 2-order subharmonics (SH), are
used to increase the contrast-to-tissue ratio (CTR) in diagnostic ultrasound (US) and to …

Understanding the behavior of cavitation bubbles driven by ultrasonic fields is an important
problem in biomedical acoustics. Keller-Miksis equation, which can account for the large …

Acoustic waves are dissipated when they pass through bubbly media. Dissipation by
bubbles takes place through thermal damping (Td), radiation damping (Rd), and damping …

It has been established that while the inherent presence of bubbles increases heat
generation due to scattering and absorption, inertial cavitation is responsible for elevated …

The onset and presence of inertial cavitation and near-boiling temperatures in high-intensity
focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy have been identified as important indicators of energy …

Cloud cavitation is potentially the most destructive form of cavitation. When the cloud
cavitation is acoustically forced into a collapse, it has the potential to concentrate a very high …
