Table 3 Validation data: slope of lesion size vs boiling onset time in mm/s for the 12-s pulses. Slopes obtained by orthogonal linear regression on the experimental data are represented by the best fit and the 90 % confidence interval
From: Simulation of high-intensity focused ultrasound lesions in presence of boiling
