Simulates high intensity focused ultrasound beams and heating effects in layered media

File Information
Description

Contains two modules. The first solves the KZK equation for the pressure distribution of an axisymmetric focused ultrasound transducer, produces salient plots, and dumps the computed data to the Matlab workspace. The second module uses the pressure distribution to compute heating and thermal dose according to a user-defined treatment protocol. Again plots are produced and data is available for postprocessing.
MATLAB release MATLAB 7.1.0 (R14SP3)

Should provide constants (alpha, beta, eta) for some other commonly used materials and media (like air) and/or cite sources on where to get them. Thanks

The software looks good although some basic sketches of the geometries, transducer positioning, materials, axes, naming conventions, etc. should be included in the instructions in order to understand basic examples and develop more advanced ones.
