a HIFU target planning within a TMTC phantom performed on T1-weighted MR images using the Sonalleve therapy planning software. Each of the nine target locations is 12 mm in diameter. b HIFU thermal ablations produced temperatures above 60 °C as seen on real-time MRI thermometry. A coronal temperature map for a single sonication location is shown. c Intensity changes (due to BSA coagulation) on T2-weighted MRI with high spatial accuracy relative to the treatment plan. d HIFU thermal ablations resulted in permanent colour changes at the targeted locations within the TMTC phantom, correlating with the T2 changes and MR thermometry, and with high spatial accuracy relative to the treatment plan
