Table 6.

The full-width half-maximum (FWHM) of the focal temperature elevation at the end of the sonication for each measured and simulated sonication, and the offset of the measured and simulated focus from the prescribed target. The parentheses after patient A are the sonication index. The values before the slash are FWHM in the anterior–posterior direction; after the slash, in the inferior–superior direction.
