Thermal characteristics of non-biological vessel phantoms for treatment of varicose veins using high-intensity focused ultrasound

The ultrasonic treatment of varicose veins uses high-intensity focused ultrasound, in which a blood vessel is contracted by converting acoustic energy into thermal energy. In this study, we propose a phantom of varicose veins that can be applied for the efficient evaluation of ultrasonic treatment i...
