High intensity focused ultrasound: surgery of the future?

TL;DR: Recent technological development suggests that HIFU is likely to play a significant role in future surgical practice, according to a literature review of recent advances made in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI

The safety and feasibility of extracorporeal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for the treatment of liver and kidney tumours in a Western population

TL;DR: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of liver and kidney tumours in a Western population is both safe and feasible and has significant implications for future noninvasive image-guided tumour ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Acoustic Bubble

Journal ArticleDOI

Role of acoustic cavitation in the delivery and monitoring of cancer treatment by high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)

TL;DR: Models for how different types of cavitation activity can serve to accelerate tissue heating are presented, and results suggest that the bulk of the enhanced heating effect can be attributed to the absorption of broadband acoustic emissions generated by inertial cavitation.
