"The small animal focused ultrasound system by FUS Instruments is an integral part of my preclinical investigations into hyperthermia mediated drug delivery using MRI-controlled focused ultrasound in rabbits.

The system’s precise computer-controlled positioning ensures accurate registration of the focal spot when MRI temperature images are acquired during test sonications. It also provides me with the flexibility to achieve customized sonication patterns in various target tissues and animal models.

The MRI-compatibility of its components is crucial to my work, enabling accurate MRI temperature measurements with images acquired while the transducer is moving during mechanically-scanned focused ultrasound hyperthermia."
