About Workshop:

In silico medicine uses computational models to simulate the interaction between ultrasonic waves and biological tissues, enabling non-invasive diagnostics and targeted treatments. This approach enhances the precision of ultrasound therapies, optimizes treatment outcomes, and supports personalized healthcare by tailoring therapies to individual tissue responses.

Aim: The aim of this research is to explore the interactions between ultrasonic wave propagation and biological tissues through in silico models. This will enhance non-invasive diagnostic accuracy, optimize therapeutic ultrasound treatments, and contribute to the development of personalized medicine by tailoring interventions based on tissue-specific responses.

Workshop Objectives:

  • To model ultrasonic wave propagation in different biological tissues using in silico methods.
  • To analyze the interaction between ultrasonic waves and tissue structures for improved diagnostic accuracy.
  • To optimize therapeutic ultrasound techniques for targeted and effective treatments.
  • To develop personalized medicine approaches by tailoring ultrasound therapies based on tissue-specific responses.
  • To advance non-invasive diagnostic tools for clinical applications in medicine.
