Abstract

The invention discloses a method for suppressing standing waves generated during transcranial focusing of high-intensity ultrasound, which suppresses the standing waves formed due to the presence of skull bones during high-intensity focused ultrasound transcranial therapy, thereby reducing the intensity of standing waves and simultaneously improving A method of focusing energy in the focal zone. It includes the following steps: S1: use the random function in Matlab to generate a random phase sequence; S2: add the generated random phase sequence to the array element excitation function at a fixed time interval; S3: select different phase conversion time intervals, use the resident The wave ratio Ra evaluates the standing wave intensity, and selects the time interval with the best standing wave suppression effect; S4: Under the condition of other inputs unchanged, perform standing wave suppression according to the selected optimal phase conversion time interval, and use the adjusted excitation function to excite The transducer is focused. The invention can realize transcranial focusing while effectively suppressing standing waves, and has the effect of increasing energy in the focal region and accelerating temperature rise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for suppressing the standing wave phenomenon generated by transcranial focusing of high-intensity ultrasound. The excitation function of each excitation array element is randomly changed by 0 or π at the same time, and the transcranial signal is modulated so that the outside of the skull The strength of the standing wave between the surface and the transducer is reduced while increasing the focal region energy. Background technique [0002] High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a new type of non-invasive treatment technology, which emits ultrasonic waves from the outside and concentrates them on the treatment target area in the human body, so that the temperature of the target area rises instantly to above 60 degrees to kill the lesion in the target area tissue therapy techniques. This technology has been used in the treatment of prostate cancer, liver cancer, uterine fibroids, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer a...
