In this article, the acoustic radiation force and torque exerted on a small spheroidal particle immersed in a nonviscous fluid inside an ideal cylindrical chamber is theoretically investigated. The ideal chamber comprises a hard top and bottom (rigid boundary condition) and a soft or hard lateral wall. By assuming that the particle is much smaller than the acoustic wavelength, analytical expressions of the radiation force and torque caused by an acoustic wave of arbitrary shape are presented. Unlike previous results, these expressions are given relative to a fixed laboratory frame. The model is showcased for analyzing the behavior of an elongated metallic microspheroid (with a 10:1 aspect ratio) in a half-wavelength acoustofluidic chamber with a diameter of a few millimeters. The results show that the radiation torque aligns the microspheroid along the nodal plane, and the radiation force causes a translational motion with a speed of up to one body length per second. Finally, the implications of this study on propelled nanorods by ultrasound are discussed.

Background And Objective: Radiation-induced cystitis (RIC) is an important consequence of pelvic radiotherapy that can cause high morbidity and, in extreme cases, mortality. The lack of a widely accepted classification system makes it difficult to compare treatment regimens. Our aim was to develop a new classification system covering the RIC spectrum to improve treatment comparisons and accurate incidence estimates for systematic use in clinical and research settings.

Significance: Accurate values of skin optical properties are essential for developing reliable computational models and optimizing optical imaging systems. However, published values show a large variability due to a variety of factors, including differences in sample collection, preparation, experimental methodology, and analysis.
Aim: We aim to explore the influence of storage conditions on the optical properties of the excised skin from 400 to 1100 nm.

This review covers the theoretical background, pulse sequence considerations, practical implementations, and multitudes of applications of magnetic resonance acoustic radiation force imaging (MR-ARFI) described to date. MR-ARFI is an approach to encode tissue displacement caused by the acoustic radiation force of a focused ultrasound field into the phase of a MR image. The displacement encoding is done with motion encoding gradients (MEG) which have traditionally been added to spin echo-type and gradient recalled echo-type pulse sequences.

Purpose: In magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) breast therapies, the focal location must be characterized to guide successful treatment. Focal characterization is difficult because heterogeneous breast tissues introduce phase aberrations that blur and shift the focus and traditional guidance methods do not work in adipose tissues. The purpose of this work is to evaluate numerical simulations of MRgFUS that predict the focal location.

Background: This study evaluates the contouring variability among observers using MR images reconstructed by different sequences and quantifies the differences of automatic segmentation models for different sequences.
Patients And Methods: Eighty-three patients with pelvic tumors underwent T1-weighted image (T1WI), contrast enhanced Dixon T1-weighted (T1dixonc), and T2-weighted image (T2WI) MR imaging on a simulator. Two observers performed manual delineation of the bladder, anal canal, rectum, and femoral heads on all images.
