Abstract

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is rapidly emerging as a non-invasive treatment for soft tissue tumours. HIFU is used to generate small regions of high intensity sound at the focus of geometrically or electronically focused transducers. These intensities are used to raise the tissue temperature rapidly to form a region of coagulative necrosis, known as a lesion. Clinical use of HIFU has shown that the technique is safe and is capable of ablating tumours. However, the technique is still in its infancy and, consequently, appropriate methods of treatment delivery, planning and monitoring are under development. In this thesis, ways ofimproving clinical treatment delivery are investigated. During HIFU treatments of the liver, it is desirable to avoid rib exposure. The high ultrasound absorption in bone means that it can heat up, leading to damage of the periosteum and overlying skin. A solution to this problem has been identified as the use a linearly segmented transducer with 10 independent elements. The acoustic field from a number of active drive element configurations of the transducer was investigated with theoretical modelling. In corresponding experiments, the acoustic field and the temperature rise on a rib phantom were measured. A novel method of visualising the heating pattern i~ the beam, namely using a temperature sensitive thermo-chromic liquid crystal, was investigated. The ability to shape the HIFU beam to spare the ribs was demonstrated, allowing the sound axis to be directed approximately a centimetre closer to the rib edge. The use of a diagnostic ultrasound scanner for measurements of ultrasound attenuation of tissue (BAE) and for thermometry (BTl) in HIFU using ultrasound backscatter is investigated. Methods of data acquisition and processing for both techniques are described together with their limitations. These techniques were used to determine the correct HIFU drive power in a lesioning experiment aiming to improve reproducibility of single lesion formation in an ex-vivo liver tissue model. Some evidence that BAE and BTl can be used as tools to improve the reproducibility of single lesion formation has been obtainedwith a reduction in the variance oflesion size and shape. In conclusion, a number of potential ways of improving HIFU treatment delivery have been demonstrated. The techniques for rib sparing, BAE and BTl are ready to be tested in a situation more representative of the clinical scenario, where multiple tissue layers, backscatter inhomogeneity and tissue motion are likely to pose more significant limits on their application.

Abstract

Top left: the picture shows the mechanical gantry arm and associated support structures in relationship to the water bag, HIFU and diagnostic ultrasound transducers. The ewe is lying supine, covered by surgical drapes (green), with maternal abdominal skin exposed only beneath the water bag. Top right: the picture shows an enlargement of the HIFU therapy transducer and the housing of the diagnostic transducer which allow integration of the two transducers, and their attachment to the mechanical gantry arm. Bottom: the diagram shows the arrangement of diagnostic and HIFU transducers in relationship to the gantry arm, the water bag, degassed water, and the maternal uterine or skin surface (not to scale).

Abstract

Real-time measurement of temperature is the holy grail of HIFU treatment monitoring as it allows calculation of the delivered thermal dose, an indicator of successful ablation. Much HIFU treatment monitoring research concentrates on improving MR and ultrasound thermometry, although many factors fundamentally limit measurement accuracy for both modalities. Temporal and volumetric averaging of highly localised rapid heating can underestimate peak temperatures. In MR, any attempt to improve temporal or spatial resolution results in lower contrast and compromises temperature resolution. While US imaging offers higher temporal resolution, the relatively low signal to noise ratio is problematic. In both cases, cavitation can significantly impair measurement. In MR thermometry, temperature resolution depends on accurate knowledge of the proton resonance frequency coefficient. Whilst this is easily obtained for water, measurement in tissue is harder. Current ultrasound guided clinical HIFU treatments rely on visualising bubbles created in tissue. Ultrasound thermometry requires accurate knowledge of the temperature dependent speed of sound for the tissue, which is known to be highly variable. Given these confounding factors, it is questionable as to whether it is really temperature we require, or whether improvements in the ability to detect coagulation in tissue might lead to greater success in ablative therapies.

Abstract

Clinical trials at the Royal Marsden Hospital for the treatment of liver tumours with high intensity focused ultrasound have shown that when ribs overlie tumours, treatment completion may not be possible. We have developed a 10 element source consisting of equal area parallel strips which has been built in collaboration with Imasonic SA (France). The rationale for this design is that the elements which contribute most strongly to that portion of energy that is incident on the ribs may be switched off as the rib cage is approached. The use of this device as a phased array is now being explored using a linear propagation acoustic model based on Fresnel-Kirchoff diffraction theory. © 2006 American Institute of Physics [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
