Brian Fowlkes

Brian Fowlkes is a University of Michigan professor of radiology and biomedical engineering whose work examines therapeutic ultrasound and cavitation. He helped develop histotripsy, which uses focused ultrasound to create cavitation bubbles that mechanically break down tissue, and has presented research on its mechanisms and clinical instrumentation.
