Abstract
Kidney cancer is a severe disease which can be treated by using a non-invasive, controllable and focused ultrasound surgery method-histotripsy. Previously, histotripsy produced by hundred-microsecond-long focused ultrasound pulses has been proposed by us, which generates mechanical homogenized lesion by employing boiling bubbles and high duty cycle compared with conventional methods. However, the efficiency of this method is not high due to single focus. In order to overcome this problem, we propose a new histotripsy method, which can produce multiple split foci along beam axial via dual-frequency second harmonic superimposition mode.
