Abstract :
There are some preceding researches and theories to analyze how acoustic radiation force effects on a cylinder like a pole shape. However, it is difficult to apply the theory to a catheter, which is elastic with shape of tube. In this paper we discuss the effects of sound diffraction around a catheter through the experimental results.
