Representative lesion [(a)–(f)] and bubble cloud [(g)–(l)] images in RBC phantoms after 500 histotripsy pulses had being applied. These images were taken in the axial-lateral plane of the therapy transducer, and the histotripsy pulses propagated from the left to the right of the field. As can be seen, the spatial extents of both the lesion and bubble cloud increased as the applied pressure level increased. The images for P− = 27.3 and 27.9 MPa are not included in this figure since they don’t differ from the ones for P− = 26.2 MPa significantly. The pressure level of P− = 80.7 MPa resulted in an extreme outcome, and its result is shown separately in Fig. 7
