Abstract
This To improve the efficiency of HIFU, the exact simulation of HIFU considering tissue characteristics is needed. In this study, the HIFU simulation program considering attenuation is developed and confirmed its usefulness by comparing with HIFU heating test in TMM phantom. It is expected that the developed simulation will be improved and widely used in the clinical field to improve the efficient of HIFU therapy.
