Micro-Bubble Pressure Measrement Using Ultrasound

The book explores the innovative use of micro-bubbles as contrast agents in ultrasound medical imaging, particularly for measuring blood pressure in the heart and other organs. It delves into the relationship between acoustic forces and micro-bubble properties, focusing on the emergence of non-linear effects, such as half-harmonic components in the signals they produce. Through laboratory experiments, the author investigates the conditions necessary for these effects, aiming to enhance understanding and potential future applications of micro-bubbles in medical diagnostics.
