IN VIVO TEMPERATURE RISE MEASUREMENTS OF RABBIT LIVER AND FEMUR BONE SURFACE EXPOSED TO AN ACOUSTIC RADIATION FORCE IMPULSE

Acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging and shear wave elastography use a "push pulse. " The push pulse, which is referenced as an ARFI in this study, has a longer duration than that of conventional diagnostic pulses (several microseconds). Therefore, there are concerns regarding thermal safety in vivo. However, few in vivo studies have been conducted using living animals. In this study, to suggest a concept for deciding an ARFI output and cooling time while considering thermal safety, the liver (with and without an ultrasound contrast agent) and femur bone surface of living rabbits were exposed to an ARFI, and the maximum temperature rise, temperature rise for 5-min duration, and cooling time were measured via a thermocouple. While testing within the regulation limits of diagnostic ultrasound outputs, a maximum temperature rise on the femur bone surface exceeded the allowable temperature rise (1.5C) in the British Medical Ultrasound Society (BMUS) statement. However, using the linear relationships between the pulse intensity integral (PII) of a single pulse and the above three temperature parameters, PII may be determined so that the maximum temperature rise is within the allowable temperature rise in the BMUS statement. The cooling time can be estimated from the PII. (E-mail: n.nitta@aist.go.jp) (C) 2022 World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology. All rights reserved.
