Acoustic Angiography: Superharmonic Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging for Noninvasive Visualization of Microvasculature.
2022
Acoustic angiography is a contrast-enhanced ultrasound technique that relies on superharmonic imaging to form high-resolution, three-dimensional maps of the microvasculature. In order to obtain signal separation between tissue and contrast, acoustic angiography has been performed with dual-frequency transducers with nonoverlapping bandwidths. This enables a high contrast-to-tissue ratio, and the choice of a high frequency receiving element provides high resolution. In this chapter, we describe the technology behind acoustic angiography as well as the step-by-step implementation of this contrast enhanced microvascular imaging technique.
