Other than the shapes of the tissues in the images, there is no anatomic detail. Wouldn't be useful for diagnostics. It's substantially worse than conventional ultrasound.

That’s the basic idea. You’ll still get some heating of tissue as ultrasound waves pass through other tissue but won’t be destructive. Radiation therapies use similar principles bu…
