Spatial 2D distributions of heat deposition rates in tissue in the axial plane of the array for different intensities at the array elements: a 1.2 W/cm2, b 8 W/cm2, and c 15 W/cm2. Heat deposition rates are normalized to the heating rates calculated at the same intensities assuming linear wave propagation conditions. The distributions therefore illustrate nonlinear enhancement and better spatial localization of heating using shock-wave exposures
