Investigation of microbubble behaviour under ultrasound for molecular imaging

Modern advances in ultrasound imaging technology have led to the development of targeted microbubble contrast agents; micrometer sized encapsulated bubbles coated with binding agents. Their gas core gives them high echogenicity, scattering incident ultrasound and allowing them to oscillate to produc...
