Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Electrical Engineering - Electronic Engineering - Information Engineering | Λέξεις-κλειδιά: | Ultrasound;Atherosclerotic;Plaque;MRI | Ημερομηνία Έκδοσης: | Οκτ-2013 | Πηγή: | Engineering, 2013, vol.5, n.10 | Volume: | 05 | Issue: | 10 | Περιοδικό: | Engineering | Περίληψη: | The aim of this study is to perform a simulation study of the thermal and mechanical effects of a flat rectangular (3×10 mm2),MRI compatible transducer operating at 5 MHz for the purpose of destroying atherosclerotic plaque. The simulation study focuses on measuring the plaque destruction (due to the thermal of mechanical mode of ultrasound) as a function of power, time, frequency, duty factor and pulse duration. The main goal is to keep the artery temperature at a safe level. The simulation study shows that with the thermal mode the temperature in the artery cannot be kept at a safe level. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/32831 | ISSN: | 1947-3931 1947-394X |
