Popis: |
A novel multi‐focus acoustic lens transducer system was developed for ultrasound thermal therapy. The lens was used to both form multiple foci and steer the foci off the beam axis. During heating, the lens was rotated continuously around the beam axis and large thermal lesions could be formed. This novel heating applicator design may be useful for treating tumours without requiring movement of the applicator, and therefore reduce the amount of time for a successful treatment. |
