The following three patents were issued:

• U.S. Patent No. 11844650 (the ‘650 patent), titled "Thermoacoustic Measurement Probe," protects a novel sleeve-type structural configuration for TAEUS that maximizes radiofrequency energy absorption and the corresponding thermoacoustic signal strength. The sleeve-type configuration also minimizes signal noise to provide a clearer thermoacoustic signal. Embodiments cited in the ‘650 patent utilize a plurality of radiofrequency feeds that enable signal polarization and lead to a clearer thermoacoustic measurement.
• Chinese Patent No. ZL2021800757024 (the ‘024 patent), titled "Thermal Ablation System with Integrated Thermoacoustic Temperature Measurement," relates to the TAEUS system determining temperature at a specific location in the human body. For example, the ‘024 patent protects a system designed to monitor temperature during thermal ablation for overheating to avoid destroying healthy tissue and underheating to mitigate not destroying targeted cancerous tumor cells.
• European Patent No. EP3902490, titled "Method and System for Monitoring Tissue Temperature," relates to a novel method with the TAEUS system for monitoring tissue temperature during surgical procedures, such as thermotherapy and cryotherapy.
