Acoustic Cavitation Enhances Focused Ultrasound Ablation with Phase-Shift Inorganic Perfluorohexane Nanoemulsions: An In Vitro Study Using a Clinical Device

Figure 1

Schematic diagram of the setup for ultrasound-guided high intensity focused ultrasound experiments. The phantom is placed above a 0.9 MHz HIFU transducer with real-time monitoring of ultrasound imaging. Both passive cavitation detector and thermal couple are separately placed around the phantom.
