Miniaturized Intracavitary Forward-Looking Ultrasound Transducer for Tissue Ablation

Conclusion: This miniaturized US transducer is a promising medical option for the precise tissue ablation, which can reduce the risk of unintended tissue damage found in noninvasive US treatments. Significance: Having a small aperture (2 mm), the intracavitary device is capable of ablating a bio tissue in 5 min with a relatively low electric power (<17 W).
