Clearance rate is the average of optical density values of the pixels in the black circle (Fig. 2) over time. As continuous wave ultrasound pressure increases from Pneg: 8MPa (red) to 12MPa (green) there is a slight increase in dye clearance rate. Pulsed ultrasound was applied (Pneg: 25MPa, PL: 5 ms, PRF: 20 Hz) having thesame average intensity as 8MPa continuous wave and an increase in clearance rate was observed (blue). All applied parameters initiated dye clearance compared to whenno ultrasound was applied (black)
