TABLE III.

Pearson correlation coefficients between the azimuthal position of the maximum pixel or the liquefaction zone head (LZH), and the histotripsy insonation parameters. Gray shaded cells indicate correlation of the parameter with the peak negative pressure at fixed pulse duration. Green shaded cells indicate correlation of the parameter with the pulse duration at a fixed peak negative pressure.
