Numerical analysis of the acoustic pressure inside blood vessel with exposure to high-intensity focused ultrasound.
This study investigates acoustic pressure distribution in blood vessels under high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for sonothrombolysis (STL). A tissue-mimicking phantom (skin, fat, muscle, blood) was modeled, and pressure was calculated using the Westervelt equation. Results show peak pressure increases with frequency (0.5-2 MHz), while attenuation intensifies with higher power, frequency, and vessel depth (10-30 mm). Frequencies above 1.1 MHz caused greater attenuation, influenced by skin (1-5 mm) and fat (2-7 mm) thicknesses. Below 1.1 MHz, consistent HIFU power yields similar clinical outcomes across patients, aiding STL treatment optimization.
期刊介绍:
The primary aims of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering are to provide a means of communicating the advances being made in the areas of biomechanics and biomedical engineering and to stimulate interest in the continually emerging computer based technologies which are being applied in these multidisciplinary subjects. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering will also provide a focus for the importance of integrating the disciplines of engineering with medical technology and clinical expertise. Such integration will have a major impact on health care in the future.
