摘要:
Ultrasonic cavitation can damage surrounding material and be used for destruction of the target tissue. In this paper, we investigated the interaction between atherosclerotic plaque (AP) and cavitation bubbles to determine whether the mechanical effect of cavitation damage could be potentially useful in therapy for treating atherosclerotic plaques. A two-bubble-fluid-solid model was established to study the dynamic behavior of bubbles near the AP and the AP damage by ultrasound-induced cavitation. A low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) transducer was used for testing cavitation-based AP dam...
