High frequency ultrasound imaging using contrast agents
David E. Goertz,Stuart Foster +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed compositions comprising a microbubble contrast agent, wherein at least 20% by volume of the microbubbles in the contrast agent has a size of less than 1 micron, wherein the contrast agents produces non-linear scattering when contacted by ultrasound at a frequency above 20 MHz.

Single element high frequency (<50 MHz) PZT sol gel composite ultrasound transducers
TL;DR: In this paper, a sol gel composite process has been used to produce lead zirconate titanate coatings in the thickness range of 3 to 100 /spl mu/m on aluminum substrates.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Laser micromachined high frequency ultrasonic arrays
TL;DR: In this paper, the Lumonics PM-844 excimer laser with a KrF gas mixture (248 nm) has been used to pattern piezoelectric ceramics using a projection etch approach.
PatentDOI
High frequency, high frame-rate ultrasound imaging system
TL;DR: In this article, a system for producing an ultrasound image comprises a scan head (106) having a transducer (124) capable of generating ultrasound energy at a frequency of at least 20 megahertz (MHz), and a processor (134) for receiving ultrasound energy and for generating an image (116) at a frame rate at least 15 frames per second (fps).
