The present invention employs hydrogels as acoustic couplings for clinical applications of ultrasound imaging and therapy, but is particularly applicable to high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) based therapy. While other materials can be used, it has been determined that polyacrylamide is sufficiently robust and transmissive to withstand the high temperatures encountered in HIFU therapy. One embodiment of a hydrogel coupling is configured in shape and size (length) to ensure that a focal region of an ultrasound transducer is disposed proximate the target area when the distal tip of the transducer is in contact with tissue. These couplings can be shaped to correspond to the beam focus characteristics of specific transducers. Water can be applied to hydrate the tip of the hydrogel coupling during use, and medication absorbed into the hydrogel material can be applied to the tissue in contact with the distal surface of the hydrogel.

The invention discloses a profile control oil-displacement agent for a core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon. A preparation method of the core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon comprises the following steps of carrying out surface modification of inorganic cores of inorganic nano-particles such as silica particles and magnetic particles, and carrying out graft polymerisation by a dispersion polymerization method or an inverse emulsion polymerization method to form polymer shells (such as polyacrylamide cross-linked copolymers) on the surfaces of the inorganic cores. The inorganic components and the organic components bind by chemical bonds so that the core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon has very stale structure. The core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon retains the advantages of polymer microballoons and inorganic particles, and has strong heat-resistant and mineralization-resistant capabilities, high plugging strength and good dilatancy. The core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon can move in rock pores and can plug the rock pores. When a plugging pressure difference is improved to a certain degree, elastic deformation of the core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon can be produced and the deformed core-shell type inorganic/organic polymer composite microballoon sequentially moves to a deep rock stratum part so that a liquid flow direction is changed gradually and a crude oil yield is improved. The profile control oil-displacement agent provided by the invention has a large potential.
