Ultrasound imaging is one of the most important and widely used diagnostic tools in modern medicine, second only to the conventional x-ray. Although considered a mature field, research continues for improving the capabilities, finding new uses for ultrasound technology, and driving down the cost of newer, more complicated procedures such as intravascular ultrasound.
This book presents new developments, fundamental physics, instrumentation, system architecture, biological effects of ultrasound, and clinical applications that reflect this initiative.
