Ultrasound (US) cavitation is currently being explored for low-invasive therapy techniques applied to a wide panel of pathologies. Because of the random behavior of cavitation, a real-time spatial monitoring system may be required. For this purpose, the US passive imaging techniques have been recently investigated. In particular, the passive acoustic mapping (PAM) beamforming method enables the reconstruction of cavitation activity maps by beamforming acoustic signals passively recorded by an array transducer. In this paper, an optimized version of PAM, PAM weighted with a phase coherence factor (PAM-PCF), is considered. A general validation process is developed including simulations on a point source and experiments on a wire. Furthermore,...
