(A) Time to boil for shock-induced heating in soft tissues. (B) Time to boil as a function of the temperature of the medium. The center frequency of the insonation is noted in the legend, and a 100 MPa shock amplitude was assumed. The dashed back lines span 5-20 μs in panels B, the typical duration of a shock scattering histotripsy pulse (Khokhlova et al. 2015; Maxwell et al. 2012). The specific heat per unit mass was 3.5 × 106 J/m3•C.
