Determining thresholds for contrast agent collapse
Determining the threshold of fragmentation of ultrasound contrast agents is important for both imaging and therapeutic ultrasound applications. We detected acoustic emissions from Optison™ microbubbles that were insonified by pulses of ultrasound. Our observations suggest that when the microbubbles...
