In this review we present the current status of ultrasound thermometry and ablation
monitoring, with emphasis on the diverse approaches published in the literature and with an …

The calibration dependencies of the optoacoustic (OA) transformation efficiency on tissue
temperature are obtained for the application in OA temperature monitoring during thermal …

The temperature dependence of an agar/gelatin phantom was evaluated. The purpose was
to predict the material property response to high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for …

The acoustic and thermal properties as well as the temperature change within a tissue
volume during high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation are critically important for …

Objectives Brain treatments using focused ultrasound (FUS) offer a new range of
noninvasive transcranial therapies. The acoustic energy deposition during these procedures …

Around liquid particles in a fluid of contrasting properties (for example, oil in water) in
ultrasonic fields there are small regions where thermal waves can propagate with relatively …

The applicability of the optoacoustic (OA) method for monitoring temperature during thermal
impact on biological tissues is studied experimentally. Tissues under study were chicken …

A major advantage that ultrasound therapy has over surgery, is that extra-corporeal devices
can deliver treatment. This means, however, that radiological techniques are required to …

We develop a ray-tracing theory to describe the effects of thermoacoustic lensing during
high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on ultrasound images of reflectors lying distal to the …

Dependencies of the optoacoustic (OA) transformation efficiency on tissue temperature were
obtained for the application in OA temperature monitoring during thermal therapies …
