title: [Detections of the Focal Regions Temperature for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound].
abstract: As a tumor thermal ablation technology in cancer therapy, HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) has been developed rapidly in recent years. With the technology becoming more and more mature, it's clinical application is becoming more and more widely. In HIFU therapy, the high-intensity ultrasound energy is focused in the target tumor tissue, generating heat within very short time, causing coagulation necrosis, so that the effect of the treatment is achieved. To ensure safe and therapeutic efficacy, HIFU therapy needs to be properly monitored by medical imaging, and temperature in the target has to be precisely measured, this article is based on the current domestic and foreign detection methods of the focal region temperature.
