  • High-intensity focused ultrasound for heating a target zone larger than the electronic focusing zone
    Patent number: 11116405
    Abstract: The invention provides for a medical instrument (200) comprising a magnetic resonance imaging system (202) and a high-intensity focused ultrasound system (204) with an electronically controllable and a mechanically controllable focus.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 9, 2013
    Date of Patent: September 14, 2021
    Inventors: Ari Ilkka Mikael Partanen, Matthew Robert Dreher, Pavel Sergeyevich Yarmolenko, Bradford Johns Wood, Elma Natalia Carvajal Gallardo
  • Therapeutic apparatus and method for heating a subject
    Patent number: 10099069
    Abstract: A therapeutic apparatus (900, 1000) comprising a high intensity focused ultrasound system (904) for heating a target zone (940, 1022). The therapeutic apparatus further comprises a magnetic resonance imaging system (902). The therapeutic apparatus further comprises a memory (952) containing machine executable instructions (980, 982, 984, 986, 988, 990) for execution by a processor (944). Execution of the instructions cause the processor to: generate (702, 802) heating commands (964) which cause the high intensity focused ultrasound system to sonicate the subject; repeatedly acquire (704, 804) magnetic resonance data (954) during execution of the heating commands; repeatedly calculate (706, 806) a spatially dependent parameter (970); and repeatedly modify (708, 808) the heating commands in accordance with the spatially dependent parameter such that within the target zone the spatially dependent parameter remains below a first predetermined threshold and above a second predetermined threshold.
