Sound scattering and localized heat deposition of pulse-driven microbubbles
S Hilgenfeldt et al. J Acoust Soc Am. 2000 Jun.
Abstract
The sound scattering of free microbubbles released from strongly driven ultrasound contrast agents with brittle shell (e.g., Sonovist) is studied numerically. At high peak pressure of the driving pulses, the bubbles respond nonlinearly with cross sections pronouncedly larger than in the linear case; a large portion of the energy is radiated into high frequency ultrasound. Subsequent absorption of these high frequencies in the surrounding liquid (blood) diminishes the effective scattering cross section drastically. The absorption results in highly localized heating, with a substantial temperature rise within the first few microm from the bubble surface. The maximum heating in 1 microm distance is strongly dependent on driving pressure. Temperature elevations of more than 100 K can be achieved for amplitudes of Pa approximately 30 atm, which coincides with the highest pressures used in ultrasound diagnostics. The perfectly spherical collapses assumed here occur rarely, and the heating is highly localized and transient (approximately 10 micros). Therefore, a thermal hazard would only be expected at driving pressures beyond the diagnostic range.
