Microbubbles are used as ultrasonic contrast agents that enhance the ultrasound signals of
the vascular bed. The recent development of site-targeted microbubbles opened up the …

We investigated the effects of UCA gas bubble size distribution and concentration on the
generated ultrasound echogenicity signal. Gas bubble size characterization using Coulter …

Experiments were performed to measure the dynamical response of individual SonoVue®
microbubbles subjected to pulsed ultrasound. Three commonly used bubble dynamic …

The aim of this study was to measure the relationship of image intensity with contrast agent
concentration. In vitro experiments were performed with a flow phantom and a sulphur …

A system and method for determining bubble shell properties using optical scattering. One
or more ultrasound contrast agent (UCA) bubbles is placed in an imaging volume and …

Echogenic liposomes (ELIP) are submicron-sized phospholipid vesicles that contain both
gas and fluid. With antibody conjugation and drug incorporation, these liposomes can be …

Light scattering was used to measure the radial pulsations of individual ultrasound contrast
microbubbles subjected to pulsed ultrasound. Highly diluted Optison® or Sonazoid® …

The nanomechanical properties of biocompatible thin-shell hollow polymer microspheres
with approximately constant ratio of shell thickness to microsphere diameter were measured …

Ultrasound medical imaging (UMI) is the most widely used image analysis technique, and
often requires advanced in‐vitro set up to perform morphological and functional …

Good quality acoustical experiments are needed to measure microbubble behavior. An
absolute calibration of the transmitted ultrasound field is possible using a calibrated …
