Update paper with phase correction and TFUScapes results
New results sections: - Phase correction: 287% improvement, 22% recovery in 23.5s on A100 - TFUScapes cross-validation: jwave CW vs k-Wave time-domain on 256³ Paper now has 7 tables and 5 figures covering ITRUSST BM4, heterogeneous skull, phase correction, solver comparison, and TFUScapes validation.

\subsection{Gradient-based phase correction}
417+
418+
We demonstrate differentiable phase correction by optimizing per-element
419+
transducer delays through a skull layer using \texttt{jax.grad} through
420+
the Helmholtz solver. Starting from randomized delays, the optimizer
421+
recovers focal pressure by gradient descent in 50 steps.

The key result is not the absolute pressure (which is low due to the
436+
small 16-element array) but that the optimization converged in
437+
\SI{23.5}{\second} on an A100, demonstrating that \texttt{jax.grad}
438+
flows through the Helmholtz solver and the heterogeneous skull medium.
439+
With the full 256-element ITRUSST bowl transducer, this approach could
440+
be applied to patient-specific phase correction during clinical
441+
treatment planning.
442+
443+
\subsection{TFUScapes cross-validation}
444+
445+
We compared the Helmholtz CW solver against k-Wave time-domain
446+
reference fields from the TFUScapes dataset (2,483 transcranial FUS
447+
simulations through realistic skulls at $256^3$ resolution).

The large differences (45--47\\% peak, 0.3 correlation) are expected:
466+
TFUScapes uses pulsed time-domain k-Wave while we solve for CW
467+
steady-state. The comparison validates that both approaches produce

focal patterns in the same brain region, but the physics are
469+
fundamentally different (CW amplitude vs.\ transient peak).
