On heating of tissues by shear waves generated by ultrasound
An additional heating caused by the shear wave generated by an ultrasonic wave incident on a soft tissue boundary is considered for different tissue parameters and wave frequencies in the MHz range. The shear wave structure and the space-time dynamics of the temperature field are studied for three r...

| Summary: | An additional heating caused by the shear wave generated by an ultrasonic wave incident on a soft tissue boundary is considered for different tissue parameters and wave frequencies in the MHz range. The shear wave structure and the space-time dynamics of the temperature field are studied for three realistic examples of tissue parameters. It is shown that in viscous tissues the shear component can significantly contribute to the heating in a narrow layer near the boundary. |
