Adaptive ultrasound temperature imaging for monitoring radiofrequency ablation.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been widely used as an alternative treatment modality for liver tumors. Monitoring the temperature distribution in the tissue during RFA is required to assess the thermal dosage. Ultrasound temperature imaging based on the detection of echo time shifts has received...
