What should it be called?

Low power ultrasound can trigger structural and functional changes in the body. What should this be called? Here are some real and imaginary names, alphabetically, with my take on their utility.

ARFI acoustic radiation force impulse
        -sounds slightly goofy in English
        -associated with the excellent Duke imaging program
        -"impulse" sometimes mistaken as "imaging"
        -some bioeffects are not mediated by radiation force
bioeffective ultrasound
        -includes high intensity modalities (HIFU/HITU/FUS)
BLIU bioeffective low intensity ultrasound
        -sounds ugly in English
LIBU low intensity bioeffective ultrasound
        -eh...
LIFU low intensity focused ultrasound
        -might not be focused
        -misses the biological application
LIPU low intensity pulsed ultrasound
        -might not be pulsed (could be single pulse or cw)
        -misses the biological application
LIU low intensity ultrasound
        -misses the biological application
therapeutic ultrasound
        -includes high intensity modalities (HIFU/HITU/FUS)
        -presumes the effect is therapeutic (i.e., beneficial)
