Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Electrical Engineering - Electronic Engineering - Information Engineering | Keywords: | Fat;HIFU;Phantom;TMM;Thermal conductivity | Issue Date: | Jun-2023 | Source: | Journal of ultrasound, 2023, vol. 26, no. 2, pp. 505-515 | Volume: | 26 | Issue: | 2 | Start page: | 505 | End page: | 515 | Journal: | Journal of Ultrasound | Abstract: | Tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) have a prominent role in validating new high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapies. Agar-based TMMs are often developed mimicking the thermal properties of muscle tissue, while TMMs simulating fat tissue properties are rarely developed. Herein, twelve agar-based TMMs were iteratively developed with varied concentrations of agar, water, glycerol and propan-2-ol, and characterized for their suitability in emulating the thermal conductivity of human fat tissue. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/29916 | ISSN: | 19713495 | DOI: | 10.1007/s40477-022-00746-4 | Rights: | © Società Italiana di Ultrasonologia in Medicina e Biologia (SIUMB) | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology |
