Histotripsy

On December 17, 2025, LIMU representatives Oleg A. Sapozhnikov, Vera A. Khokhlova, Pavel B. Rosnitsky, and Ekaterina M. Ponomarchuk spoke at the meeting of Scientific Council "Biomedical Physics and Engineering" at the Russian Academy of Sciences, dedicated to the development of technologies using high-intensity focused ultrasound in therapy and non-invasive surgery.

Following the Young Scientists Congress and our recently published paper on the first incisionless fractionation of leiomyosarcoma with…

On December 9–10, 2025, the II International Youth Science Forum "RadMed-2025" was held at Moscow State University. Our research fellow, Ekaterina Ponomarchuk, participated as an invited speaker with an overview talk on "Incisionless fractionation of soft tissues using pulsed high-intensity focused ultrasound".

A top-rated journal Ultrasonics (Q1, IF 4.1) has published our paper titled "Non-thermal ultrasound-guided fractionation of human leiomyosarcoma with boiling histotripsy: an ex vivo feasibility study" on our pilot results of mechanical fractionation of human leiomyosarcoma with pulsed high-intensity focused ultrasound using boiling histotripsy. The study was performed in collaboration with the MSU University Clinic, Pulmonology Research Institute, and the Human Morphology Research Institute.

Our paper titled “Respiratory motion effects and mitigation strategies on boiling histotripsy in porcine liver and kidney” has been published in a highly rated journal IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectric, and Frequency Control (Q1, IF 3.0).
