摘要

This study demonstrates the ability of histotripsy to generate targeted lesions through the skullcap without using aberration correction. Histotripsy therapy was delivered using a 500-kHz 256-element hemispherical transducer with an aperture diameter of 30 cm, and a focal distance of 15 cm fabricated in our laboratory. This transducer is theoretically capable of producing peak rarefactional pressures, based on linear estimation, (p-), in the free field in excess of 200 MPa with pulse durations 2 acoustic cycles. Three excised human skullcaps were used displaying attenuations of 73%–81% of the acoustic pressure without aberration correction. Through all three skullcaps, compact lesions with radii less than were generated in red blood cell agarose tissue phantoms without aberration correction, using estimated (p-) of , a pulse repetition frequency of , and a total number of 300 pulses. Lesion generation was consistently observed at the geometric focus of the transducer as the position of the skullcap with respect to the transducer was varied, and multiple-patterned lesions were generated transcranially by mechanically adjusting the position of the skullcap with respect to the transducer to target different regions within. These results show that compact targeted lesions with sharp boundaries can be generated through intact skullcaps using histotripsy with very short pulses without using aberration correction. Such capability has the potentia- to greatly simplify transcranial ultrasound therapy for noninvasive transcranial applications, as current ultrasound transcranial therapy techniques all require sophisticated aberration correction.
