Dose-effect of HIFU in tumor therapy / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

HIFU is a new technology of noninvasive tumorectomy, which take use of thermal effects, mechanical effects and cavitation effects, etc. Currently, One of the difficulties in clinical application is how to determine energy dose of HIFU and resulted biological change. This paper expounds the factors such as sound intensity, irradiation duration, treatment depth, sound environment,etc. ,which affect energy input and therapeutic efficiency in HIFU treatment.
