IPSCIO Record ID: 250127
HIFU is a non-invasive therapy that uses focused ultrasound waves to thermally ablate a portion of tissue, meaning the tissue is destroyed using intense heat. The intense heat causes tissue coagulation necrosis, cavitation and heat shock in the cells, meaning that the portion of tissue which is being ablated is destroyed. High power ultrasound can be focused on a targeted point to raise the temperature to 70-80°C. HIFU uses sonication (sound energy) to create this heat. Each sonication heats only a small focal target, so the interventional radiologist will use multiple sonications to ablate the whole affected area. The interventional radiologist may use diagnostic sonography with focused ultrasound (USgFUS or USgHIFU) or magnetic resonance guidance with focused ultrasound (MRgFUS). HIFU is used to treat fibroids, prostate cancer, kidney cancer and primary and secondary liver cancer.
Histotripsy is the capability of therapeutic ultrasound to generate purely mechanical damage of tissue without thermal coagulation. Boiling Histotripsy occurs when the frequency is higher (one – 3 MHz), the pulses are much longer (3000 – 10000 cycles) and delivered less often (0.5 – 1 Hz). The peak pressures are lower, about p-=10-15 MPa and p+>40MPa. In this regime, boiling is initiated within each millisecond – long pulse due to effective tissue heating by shocks.
