Experimental Evaluation of an Ultrasound‐Guided High‐Intensity‐Focused Ultrasound Probe for Sonication of Artery
The developed USgHIFU probe induced greater vascular contractions by covering a larger area of the vessel wall in the radial direction. Sonication energy affects vascular contraction through temperature elevation of the vessel wall. When the acoustic power was high, an increase in acoustic power, even with comparable sonication energy, did not result in greater vessel contraction.
