Focused ultrasound surgery (FUS) is being developed clinically for the non-invasive treatment of soft tissue tumours of the prostate, bladder, liver, kidney, muscle and breast. In the work described in this paper, the application of FUS is extended to investigate the potential to induce vascular occlusion, with the aim of applying the technique to problems in fetal medicine and oncology.
