Numerical evaluation of high-intensity focused ultrasound- induced thermal lesions in atherosclerotic plaques

The aim of this study is to estimate the effects of some acoustic parameters on thermal lesions of atherosclerotic plaques in high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) fields. A fluid-solid thermal coupling model is presented for describing the temperature elevation and thermal ablation of atheroscle...
