The effect of varying the number of standard deviations - σ(IFTdegas,P) – on the calculated peak rarefactional pressure IC threshold. Refer to Equation 3 for the criterion used to determine the presence of IC in an RF segment. The average (n=3) IC thresholds, plotted with the respective standard deviations, are from the following experimental conditions: degassed water at 37°C with albumin-coated PFP droplets, 83 Hz PRF, and 13 cycles.
