摘要
Focused ultrasound is an early stage, noninvasive therapy with the potential to treat a range of medical conditions. Like diagnostic ultrasound, it uses sound waves above the range of human hearing. But its purpose is to interact with tissues in the body, rather than just produce images of them. In focused ultrasound, multiple, intersecting beams of high frequency sound are aimed to converge on specific targets deep within the body. There, the ultrasound energy can act in multiple ways to either modify or destroy tissue.
