This article presents a method to calculate the average acoustic intensity during ultrasound simulation using a new approach that exploits compression of intermediate results. One of the applications of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) simulations is the calculation of the thermal dose, which indicates the amount of tissue destroyed using a state-of-the-art k-space pseudospectral method. The thermal simulation is preceded by the calculation of the average intensity within the acoustic simulation.
