Experimental study of histotripsy in ex vivo bovine liver tissue exposed to pulsed high intensity focused ultrasound

High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been used in clinical treatment for a variety of diseases, and achieved good results. Former related researches are mostly focused on either consecutive HIFU or HIFU with a low duty cycle, which is similar to the damage caused by consecutive HIFU mainly t...
