Zusammenfassung In the accompanying article (Part I), a method is described to determine acoustic cavitation probabilities in tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) using a high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) transducer for both inducing and detecting the acoustic cavitation events, and its suitability for different sonication modes like continuous wave, single pulses (with pulse lengths from microseconds to milliseconds) and repeated burst signals is discussed. In Part II, the use of the method for a systematic study of the dependence of the acoustic cavitation thresholds in 3% (by weight) agar phantoms on the temporal sonication parameters is discussed. The values obtained at a frequency of 1.06 MHz, ranging from (0.58 ± 0.12) MPa for a 3-s continuous wave mode sonication to (5.2 ± 1.0) MPa for single shots with a length of 10 wave cycles, are discussed and interpreted on the basis of literature values and their self-consistency.
