About
Sana Boudabbous is a leading researcher in interventional radiology and biomedical imaging, with a primary focus on advancing high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy. Her key contributions lie in developing innovative methods to overcome the challenge of respiratory motion during abdominal HIFU ablation. In her highly cited 2018 work, "Self-Scanned HIFU Ablation of Moving Tissue Using Real-Time Hybrid US-MR Imaging," she introduced a groundbreaking self-scanning approach that keeps the focal spot static while leveraging natural tissue motion to create the heating pattern. This technique, which integrates real-time hybrid ultrasound and MR imaging, significantly improves the precision and safety of non-invasive tumor treatments. With over 20 citations, this paper has become a foundational reference for researchers tackling motion-compensated thermal therapies. Boudabbous’s work bridges engineering and clinical practice, offering practical solutions for treating moving organs like the liver and kidneys. Her research continues to shape the future of image-guided interventions, making her a notable figure in the field of therapeutic ultrasound.
