Propagation Modeling of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Wave through Multi Layer Tissue along with Experimental Validation, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Ahmadian, Mohammad Taghi (Supervisor)
Abstract
One of the main problems in human health, both in advanced societies and in growing societies, is a variety of cancers, one of which is brain tumor. One of the non-invasive methods of treating tumors is the use of ultrasound.HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) therapy method is known as one of the most advanced surgical techniques in tumor ablation therapy. HIFU are produced and concentrated by powerful transducers. The two main mechanisms in HIFU are mechanical and thermal mechanisms, and the effects of these two mechanisms appear as thermal effects and cavitation. The fundamental mechanism in the HIFU is to absorb ultrasonic waves and to convert them into heat.The purpose of this...
