Quantitative acoustic microscopy of individual living human cells.

The elastic properties of cells can be measured with microscopic resolution by acoustic microscopy. By measuring the waveform of very short pulses, the thickness, and the acoustic velocity, impedance and attenuation can be determined from the two separate signals reflected from the top and the botto...
