The simulation of the hepatocellular carcinoma therapy effects is often used for the intervention planning. As the physical-based model of the simulation is very time-consuming, the speed of this method becomes an obstacle during the clinical application simulation. In order to accelerate the simulation, a GPU-based (Graphic Processing Unit) acceleration method of the pressure field estimation is proposed in this paper. The results demonstrate that the proposed acceleration method can solve the time-consuming problem.
