5. Methods for determining focal point and delay for ultrasound arrays and multichannel electronics
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : High intensity focused ultrasound is a growing technique for tissue ablation, among other uses, and given its destructive capabilities, there is a need for control of where the energy is delivered. There exist a number of methods for focusing such ultrasound arrays, but these often assume prior knowledge of the impulse response, or require extensive full-system simulations. READ MORE
