A rapid and non-invasive method for measuring the peak positive pressure of HIFU fields by a laser beam

Abstract Based on the acousto-optic interaction, we propose a laser deflection method for rapidly, non-invasively and quantitatively measuring the peak positive pressure of HIFU fields. In the characterization of HIFU fields, the effect of nonlinear propagation is considered. The relation between th...
