Mechanical Index
MI is the estimated likelihood of tissue damage due to cavitation.
MI is defined as:
equivalent to Track3 MI when the depth ZMI=Zsp.
The MI will not exceed a value of 1.9 according to Track 3 in the
FDA 510(k) guidance of September 9, 2008.
The depth for p
r,
(z) is not limited by the breakpoint depth.
