(a) MRI-based temperature image during a sonication (130 W for 30 seconds) into rabbit thigh muscle during a test of an MRI-compatible transrectal phased array applicator for MRgFUS of prostate (b) The thermal lesion (arrow) seen in T2-weighted imaging. The bright region to the right of the lesion is a tissue fascia layer. Figure reproduced from Sokka SD, Hynynen K.
