Nonlinear response to ultrasound of encapsulated microbubbles.
The acoustic backscatter of encapsulated gas-filled microbubbles immersed in a weak compressible liquid and irradiated by ultrasound fields of moderate to high pressure amplitudes is investigated theoretically. The problem is formulated by considering, for the viscoelastic shell of finite thickness, an isotropic hyperelastic neo-Hookean model for the elastic contribution in addition to a Newton...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of Non-Spherical Response of Therapeutic Encapsulated Microbubbles to Ultrasound
A 3-D zero-thickness shell model was developed to simulate the non-spherical response of therapeutic encapsulated microbubbles subjected to ultrasound excitation. The 3-D model was compared with previous developed models for validation. This model was then utilized to study the bubble break-up during non-spherical deformations resulting from the presence of a nearby solid wall. The effect of sh...
متن کاملUltrasound Imaging using the Low-Frequency Response of Microbubbles
When microbubbles are excited by two frequency signals, a nonlinear response signal may occur at the difference frequency. As these two frequencies are made close, this nonlinear response will reside at lowfrequency region. We have derived a theory for the weak short-pulse response based on a two-frequency approximation, which provides the pressure and the bandwidth dependence properties of the...
متن کاملUltrasound with microbubbles
Conventional ultrasound has well known short comings in the detection and characterisation of focal liver lesions. A false negative rate of up to 30% has been quoted in the detection of liver metastases and its accuracy in the characterisation of focal liver lesions is poor compared to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR). Ultrasound microbubble contrast agents have redressed th...
