摘要: In this study, we investigate the feasibility of developing an intracranial catheter transducer capable real time 3D (RT3D) imaging and ultrasound hyperthermia, for application in visualization treatment tumors brain. Feasibility is demonstrated by acquiring RT3D images a canine model using 10 Fr, matrix array transducer, achieving temperature rise over 4degC excised pork muscle linear with our diagnostic scanner. An integrated prototype was constructed used to acquire test phantoms.
