Abstract:PurposeHistotripsy is a nonionizing, noninvasive, and nonthermal focal tumor therapy. Cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) guidance was developed for targeting tumors not visible on ultrasound. This approach assumes cavitation is formed at the geometrical focal point of the therapy transducer. In practice, the exact location might vary slightly between transducers. In this study, we present a phantom with an embedded target to evaluate CBCT‐guided histotripsy accuracy and assess the completeness of treatments.… Show more
