Dual-Frequency Piezoelectric Transducers for Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging

Dual-Frequency Piezoelectric Transducers for Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging

For many years, ultrasound has provided clinicians with an affordable and effective imaging tool for applications ranging from cardiology to obstetrics. Development of microbubble contrast agents over the past several decades has enabled ultrasound to distinguish between blood flow and surrounding t...
