Exploring potential mechanisms responsible for observed changes of ultrasonic backscattered energy with temperature variations
… has been proven to be an effective way of enhancing radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but monitoring the temperature accurately and noninvasively is imperative for controlling the exposures. Ultrasound thermometry techniques have been proposed, such as tracking echo shifts or correlating the changes …

3D Temperature Imaging Using Ultrasonic Backscatter Energy during Non-Uniform Tissue Heating
Background: Hyperthermia alone or in conjunction with chemotherapy and radiation is used for cancer treatment. One of its limitation is lack of detailed temperature monitoring. Ultrasound is a cheap, non-ionizing and convenient method with potential for non-invasive temperature imaging. Previously …
