In ultrasound B-mode imaging, speckle noises decrease the accuracy of estimation of tissue echogenicity of imaged targets from the amplitude of the echo signals. In addition, since the granular size of the speckle pattern is affected by the point spr...
High frequency ultrasound (HFUS) is being used increasingly widely in aesthetic medicine, enabling real-time, noninvasive imaging of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, blood vessels, muscles, and previously injected materials. The aim of this article is...
Nanodroplets have demonstrated potential for the range detection of hadron radiotherapies. Our formulation uses superheated perfluorobutane (C4F10) stabilized by a poly(vinyl-alcohol) shell. High-LET (linear energy transfer) particles vaporize the na...
