基于文献计量学的高强度聚焦超声研究热点与趋势分析OA

Objective:To analyze hotspots and trends of the research for high-intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU)on the basis of bibliometrics method,so as to provide references for research and development of that in future.Methods:The published English articles related to HIFU in the database of the Web of Science Core Collection(WoSCC)were retrieved from January 1,2000 to March 16,2025.The CiteSpace software and Bibliometrix R software bag were adopted to conduct bibliometrics analysis for the data of the number of the published articles,and the key words of the research literature that related to HIFU.Results:A total of 4,375 articles were included.The annual number of HIFU-related research articles appeared upward trend,and the annually average growth rate reached to 12.31%,which appeared 3 stage characteristics that were respectively"slowly exploration-growth with high speed-deepening of application".The most main journal was International Journal of Hyperthermia,and China and Chongqing Medical University were respectively the country and institution with the highest number of published papers.Wang Zhibiao,a Chinese scholar,ranked first in terms of the number that published articles.Artificial intelligence was an emerging topic.In recent years,the topics of hotspots were the immune stimulation mechanism of HIFU,the researches about advantages and disadvantages,and long-term efficacy of HIFU in clinical practice,technical iteration of transducer,and monitoring of ultrasound and magnetic resonance.Conclusion:The development of the research of the relative field of HIFU is rapid,which appears a research vision of trinity about"mechanism mining-technical optimization-clinical promotion".However,it still faces to research bottlenecks at many aspects include mechanism,technique and clinical practice.In future,we should strengthen globally collaborative mode,so as to establish perfect system of clinical application and assessment to improve the overall curative effect and prognosis.
