Studies of the cavitational effects of clinical ultrasound by sonoluminescence: 2. Thresholds for sonoluminescence from a therapeutic ultrasound beam and the effect of temperature and duty cycle

Sonoluminescence, produced when a therapeutic ultrasound generator operating at 1 MHz was used to insonate a tank of water, was detected using a photomultiplier tube and analysed using pulse height analysis. Spectra of the number of counts per second were obtained for the complete range of observed...
