Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, there are significant progress of the ultrasound imaging and sening in medical and biomedical applications. We have witnessed innovative technical breakthroughs of ultrasound in various aspects, including wearable ultrasound, elasticity imaging, multimodality imaging, intravascular imaging, miniature ultrasound, small animal imaging, tissue characterization, photoacoustic imaging, elastic imaging, muscle-scheleton imaging, point-of-care application. One of the key factors that enables these progress is the development of the innovative and custom-made ultrasound transducers.
In this Special Issue, we welcome all research and developments that advanced ultrasound transducers/sensors developments and improved the ultrasound imaging and sensing in medical or biomedical applications.
