Opis: Principles and Applications of Therapeutic Ultrasound in Healthcare - Yufeng Zhou

Principles and Applications of Therapeutic Ultrasound in Healthcare introduces concepts, principles, construction, and applications of therapeutic ultrasound: from bench to bedside. A comprehensive examination of the industry and medical application of ultrasound therapy, this book highlights working principles, research progress, and system structures of therapeutic ultrasound. It describes the principles of therapeutic ultrasound, details the system construction, introduces current and emerging applications, and discusses developing therapeutic ultrasound technologies. Divided into two parts, the book first introduces the fundamentals of biomedical acoustics, discusses ultrasound calibration methods, and the structures of available therapeutic ultrasound systems before moving on to the various applications of ultrasound therapy used in clinics. It includes a variety of extensive clinical trials, outcome photos and illustrating figures, and a critical commentary on the challenges in this field. The author discusses topics that include: * The derivation of wave equation * The mathematical solution of the wave propagation * The phenomena of reflection * Refraction and transmission in the acoustic field from different acoustic sources * The radiation pattern of the ultrasound transducer * The acoustical properties of biological tissues * Ultrasound-induced bioeffects * Cavitation * The design of the ultrasound transducer * The characterization method of the produced acoustic field An easy reference offering full coverage of popular ultrasound therapies, Principles and Applications of Therapeutic Ultrasound in Healthcare provides a simple explanation of fundamental acoustics, including wave equation, propagation, nonlinearity, and transducer design. It also discusses other potential applications, and is geared toward academia, industry, and researchers.Introduction References Wave Equation Fundamental Equations for an Ideal Fluid Small-Amplitude 1D Acoustic Wave Equation 3D Wave Equation Velocity Potential Speed of Sound Acoustic Impedance Solution of Wave Equation Spherical Waves Cylindrical Waves Wave in Solid Assignment References Sound Reflection, Refraction, and Transmission Acoustic Energy and Intensity Sound Pressure and Intensity Level Boundary Conditions Normal Incidence Oblique Incidence Middle Layer Transmission Assignment References Acoustic Field and Wave Radiation Acoustic Interference Acoustic Wave Radiation Transducer Field Array Transducer Field Assignment References Acoustical Properties of Biological Tissue Cell and Tissue Acoustic Attenuation Wave Equation with Attenuation Viscosity Relaxation Attenuation Measurement Assignment References Nonlinear Acoustics D Nonlinear Dynamic Equation Nonlinear Equation of State Nonlinearity Parameters Nonlinear Acoustic Wave Propagation Interaction of Finite-Amplitude Sound Waves Interaction of Sources at Different Frequencies Propagation of Finite-Amplitude Wave in Viscous Medium Measurement of Nonlinearity B/A Assignment References Cavitation Nucleation Cavitation Threshold Rectified Diffusion Bubble Dynamics Cavitation Effects Cavitation Measurement References Transducer Piezoelectricity Equivalent Circuit Transducer Design Capacitive Transducer Transducer Array References Acoustic Field Calibration and Measurement Acoustic Pressure Measurement Radiation Force Balance Calorimeter Holography Interferometric Measurement Field Mapping Using Vibrometer Schlieren Imaging Light Diffraction Tomography Light Scanning of Ultrasound Field Time-Delay Spectrometry Infrared Thermography References Ultrasonic Physiotherapy Introduction System Structure and Treatment Protocol Mechanisms and Bioeffects Clinical Trials Discussion References Hyperthermia Rationale of Hyperthermia Effect of Thermal Conduction and Blood Perfusion Ultrasound Hyperthermia Technology Thermometry Treatment Planning and Control Ultrasound Hyperthermia-Induced Effects Clinical Outcome Combination with Radiation Hyperthermia-Mediated Drug Release Future Work References Shock Wave Lithotripsy and Treatment Kidney Stone Disease and SWL History Development Limitations in Renal Injury and Stone Fragmentation Technology and Measurement Mechanisms of SWL: Stone Fragmentation and Renal Injury Technical Improvement Shock Wave Therapy References High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Introduction History of HIFU Advantages of HIFU System Structure and Operation Mechanism of HIFU HIFU Monitoring and Control Clinical Applications Clinical Experience HIFU-Related Therapeutic Methods Conclusions References Ultrasound-Mediated Drug Delivery/Gene Transfection Introduction Drug/Gene Delivery Approach Acoustically Active Drug Vehicles Sonoporation Targeted Drug Delivery for Cancer Gene Therapy Sonophoresis Sonothrombolysis Drug Delivery across the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) Sonodynamic Therapy Discussion and Future Directions References Future of Therapeutic Ultrasound
