Abstract:
Abstract: High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been proven to be a safe and effective non-invasive solid tumor ablation method, but the main problems currently faced are relatively long duration of treatment times and low treatment efficiency. In HIFU treatment, it is possible to achieve synergy through cavitation. How to generate cavitation effects, and how to improve the synergistic effect of cavitation on thermal effects have always been a concern of researchers. From the perspective of in vitro introduction of cavitation nucleus and acoustically driven cavitation nucleus, the effects of microbubble contrast agent, phase change nanodroplets, dual-frequency HIFU, pulse-enhanced thermaleffect and intensified peak sound pressure enhance in HIFU treatment are reviewed.
