IEEE IUS 2021 Welcome Message
Dear International Ultrasonics Symposium Colleagues,
We would like to warmly welcome you to participate in the 2021 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium(IUS) with Xi’an as the originally planned venue for a face-to-face conference. Unfortunately, due to theglobal pandemic situation, IUS 2021 will be a full-online meeting again this year, since the original plan ofin-person meeting in Xi’an and the possible hybrid format have been abandoned.
Based on the recent experiences of on-line IUS and UFFC conferences, both the oral lectures and theposter presentations are pre-recorded and available for on-demand viewing on the conference platform inyear. Furthermore, the participants can not only engage with the speakers via the live Q&A during thesession on the conference platform, but also discuss or talk with each other within the Gather.Town rooms
to facilitate virtual face to face interactions. The well-received group discount for registration is continued
again this year to provide additional free registrations within the same organization. This year, a special
discount is offered to encourage the participation of the registrants from Low to Middle Income Countries(LMIC).
Under the situation of a severe global pandemic, ultrasonics colleagues are still working so hard and arecord number of abstracts was submitted this year. 1,171 papers were selected for lecture and poster
presentations after the strict review process of the Technical Program Committee members. During thisyear’s edition, the 2021 Biomedical Engineering Award will be given to Professor Katherine W. Ferrara, amember of the National Academy of Engineering, after the opening ceremony. Katherine will also deliver
the plenary talk titled ‘Ultrasound’s future within the medical imaging spectrum’. This year we have arranged
for three special sessions on Immunotherapy, Brain Applications, and Clinical Experiences. The
responsibilities of session chairs in the online meeting are further clarified and the senior session chairs are
paired with some junior and industrial members as co-session chairs.
In the meantime, we would like to sincerely thank the Organizing Committee, the Technical Program
Committee, all of the other organizers and the attendees for their devotion and constant effort making thisconference happen despite the unstable health situation. We also gratefully acknowledge the generous
and strong support provided by the sponsors and patrons, and we strongly encourage all the participants
to visit their virtual exhibit websites and Gather Town spaces.

Sunday, September 12
11:45 am - 12:45 pm Eastern / 11:45 pm – 12:45 am China Standard Time

Katherine Ferrara
Katherine Whittaker Ferrara is a Professor of Radiology. She is a member of the National Academy ofEngineering and a fellow of the IEEE, American Association for the Advancement of Science, theBiomedical Engineering Society, the World Molecular Imaging Society, the Acoustical Society of America
and the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering. Dr. Ferrara received her Ph.D. in 1989
from the University of California, Davis. Prior to her PhD, Dr. Ferrara was a project engineer for General
Electric Medical Systems, involved in the development of early magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasoundsystems. Following an appointment as an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering
at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Dr. Ferrara served as the founding chair of the Department of
Biomedical Engineering at UC Davis. Her laboratory is known for early work in aspects of ultrasonics andhas more recently expanded their focus to broadly investigate molecular imaging and drug delivery.
Ultrasound’s future within the medical imaging spectrum
Based on Dr. Ferrara’s career experience and current position as the Division Chief of the Molecular
Imaging Program at Stanford, this presentation will describe translational opportunities and synergies for
medical ultrasound within radiology. High channel count ultrasound systems, application specific integrated
circuits and GPU computing each contribute to opportunities to advance ultrasound technology. The
presentation will particularly focus on new technologies applied in early human studies and clinical trials.
Particular areas of focus will include real-time volumetric imaging, personalized treatments with magnetic
resonance-guided focused ultrasound, and opportunities for image-guided drug and gene therapy. In therealm of image guidance, the session will highlight synergies with positron emission tomography in theassessment of delivery and gene expression.

TURN UP THE HEAT OR POP THE BUBBLE? CLINICAL
TRANSLATION OF ULTRASOUND-ENHANCED DRU
Over the past 5 years, both thermally-triggered andcavitation-mediatedultrasound-enhanced
drug
delivery approaches have been translated into earlyphase clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumours,
demonstrating
theirpotentialforsignificant
enhancements in drug delivery, distribution andtherapeutic efficacy in solid tumours. The challenges and opportunities presented in clinicallytranslating both of these approaches from bench to bedside will be discussed, with particularreference to the need for scalable thermometry methods, rapid patient-specific modelling of
ultrasound propagation based on standard clinically available imaging, and the further development
and refinement of methods for mapping and quantifying cavitation activity in patients.

OPENING
Dr. Woodworth’s clinical research team is leading the first-in-human US
clinical trials studying MRI-guided focused ultrasound-mediated blood
brain barrier disruption (MRgFUS-BBBD) in brain tumor patients. Thesestudies are designed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of MRgFUS
BBBD, with the eventual goal of using this technology to improvetherapeutic delivery to and effects against intrinsic brain tumors.

Dr. Hong Chen
Washington University in St. LouisSONOBIOPSY FOR NONINVASIVE AND SPATIOTEMPORALLYCONTROLLED BRAIN TUMOR LIQUID BIOPSIESBrain tumors severely threaten human health due to their fastdevelopment and poor prognosis. The current standard of care relies
on MRI to identify suspicious tumor lesions, followed by surgicalresection or stereotactic biopsy for histological confirmation.
However, invasive brain tumor biopsy carries a 5–7% risk of major
morbidity. It may not be possible at all to perform this procedure on medically inoperable patients or
patients with tumors in surgically inaccessible locations. Repeated tissue biopsies to assess treatment
response and recurrence are often not feasible given the increased risk for complications andmorbidity. These challenges limit the timely diagnosis and selection of treatment options, hinder abetter understanding of the disease, and impair the development of effective treatment approaches.
Blood-based liquid biopsy provides a noninvasive strategy for tumor diagnosis, but its application inbrain tumors has remained challenging. This is partially due to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which
is a physical obstacle preventing the transfer of brain tumor biomarkers into the peripheral circulation,
resulting in extremely low concentrations of circulating biomarkers. To address this challenge, wedeveloped a technique called sonobiopsy, which used focused ultrasound (FUS) to disrupt the BBB
and release tumor biomarkers into the blood circulating, enabling molecular characterization of thebrain tumor without surgery. Sonogiopbys provides a promising technique for noninvasive andspatiotemporal controlled molecular diagnosis of brain tumors. It has the potential to radically advancethe diagnosis, monitoring, and understanding of brain tumors by precisely, rapidly, and safely
identifying tumor molecular signatures.

ENERGY HARVESTING AND PASSIVE RESONATORS WITHCONTACTLESS INTERROGATION FOR STAND-ALONE SENSORSBASED ON PIEZOELECTRIC FILMS
One of the main trends in sensors for both research and industrial
applications is to increasingly aim at freestanding sensor units withwireless signal transmission, often across a short range. Eliminatingcables requires means to make energy available in the sensor unit for
power supply. On-board energy sources, such as batteries, are still the
primary choice, yet they suffer limitations in terms of depletion andneed for recharge/replacement, which makes them unsuitable in many applications and ultimately
demands for new solutions in the long run. In order to develop stand-alone sensor units, two attractive
options, each with specific features, are either energy harvesting to power sensors from thesurroundings, thereby making them energetically-autonomous nodes, or passive sensors with energy
supplied on demand from an external interrogation module. Both options can be enabled by
piezoelectric film elements embedded in miniaturized devices. In particular, the piezoelectric effectas a cross-field transduction mechanism between the electrical and mechanical domains can be
exploited in either energy harvesting from mechanical inputs or in electromechanical microresonators
working as passive sensors coupled to specific external electronics to obtain short-range contactless18

readout. The talk will offer an overview of energy harvesters from vibrationand motion and of resonant sensors with contactless interrogation basedon piezoelectric films and present examples of stand-alone sensors.

PHONONIC FREQUENCY COMBS IN MICROELECTROMECHANICALSYSTEMS
Phononic frequency combs are the mechanical analogue of opticalfrequency combs These frequency combs (response features evidenced
as a series of equispaced discrete spectral lines) have been experimentally observed in a multitudeof microelectromechanical devices confirming theoretical predictions of such phenomena in FPU
chains. The formation of phononic frequency combs is mediated by nonlinear mode coupling andmixing, where comb-like spectra in the RF can be generated by driving a microelectromechanicaldevice via a single-tone drive signal. The first systematic experimental observations were made in asystem comprising two coupled modes in a single resonator device, and this has been recently
followed by observations of the same phenomena in micromechanical systems comprising three
coupled modes, and in coupled devices where multiple comb regimes can co-exist, with comb features
defined by the system and drive parameters. While the engineering of optical frequency combs has

HOW WILL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY BENEFIT FROM DEEP LEARNING?
For several years now, deep learning techniques have beensuccessfully applied to medical imaging in general, andechocardiography in particular. Far from being the promised panacea,
these methods have allowed major advances in many specific areas
such as echocardiogram analysis, view classification, recognition and segmentation of anatomical
structures, user guidance or even automatic report generation. Moreover, the combination of thesedifferent techniques allows the deployment of complete and fully automated processing chains,
making it possible to increase the reliability of clinical measurements and facilitate the use ofultrasound scanners outside of hospitals. In my talk, I will describe proven deep learning techniques,
why they have led to significant improvements in many cardio-vascular applications, their limitations,and the innovations needed to keep the echocardiographic imaging revolution moving forward.

THE COMBINATION OF FOCUSED ULTRASOUNDIMMUNOTHERAPY FOR PANCREATIC CANCER THERAPY

AND

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a disease with adismal prognosis and is refractory to traditional oncologic
interventions. Checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy has failed to
improve patient survival. This is partly due to the low vascularity,
dense stroma and high interstitial pressure typical of PDAC
tumours, and partly due to their low immunogenicity. For these reasons the development of treatment
protocols to combine immunotherapy with modalities like focused ultrasound that could render “hot”
immunologically “cold” tumours, and increase their permeability to immunotherapeutic agents areurgently needed. In this talk, past and recent evidence of ultrasound-induced immune stimulation in
PDAC patients and preclinical models will be presented. Then we will show how pulsed high intensity
focused ultrasound can be used in combination with checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy to enhance
the survival of murine subjects carrying orthotopic pancreatic tumours. In the last part of the talkresults on the use of focused ultrasound to facilitate the infection of PDAC tumours by oncolytic
viruses will be presented.

ELASTOGRAPHIC IMAGING OF TUMOR MICROENVIRONMENT
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a 5-year survival rateof less than 10%. Surgical resection is the most effective therapy, but
only 15-20% of pancreatic cancer patients have resectable diseaseat diagnosis. For a subset of patients with borderline resectable
tumors, neoadjuvant therapies can downstage the tumor and enable
surgical resection. However, the tumor microenvironment (TME)
limits the ability of neoadjuvant therapies to do so. X-ray computed
tomography provides information about major blood vessels and soft tissue geometry, but it does notprovide information about tumor microenvironmental changes. In this talk, I will report the results ofour preclinical studies that demonstrate that elastography is a good surrogate imaging biomarker forassessing changes in pancreatic cancer’s tumor microenvironment during different neoadjuvant
therapies.

COMMERCIALIZATION OF PMUT-BASED ULTRASONIC TIME-OFFLIGHT RANGE SENSORS
Ultrasonic sensors based on bulk piezoelectric ceramics are widelyused in range-finding applications today. In 2019, we introduced a
new type of ultrasonic sensor based on a piezoelectric
micromachined ultrasonic transducer (PMUT) combined with acustom application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) in a 3.5 x 3.5 x
1.25 mm3 package. Originally conceived in a university research
project, we started a company, Chirp Microsystems (acquired in 2018
by TDK Inc.), to bring these sensors into mass production. The
sensor’s signal processing ASIC incorporates a programmablemicroprocessor, enabling the sensor to perform various application-specific algorithms, from basic
time-of-flight range-finding to human presence detection. Relative to competing range sensors basedon infrared time-of-flight, PMUT-based ultrasonic ToF sensors have numerous advantages, includingmuch lower supply current (10 µA from a 1.8V supply), the ability to operate in direct sunlight, andthe ability to detect transparent or black targets. We will present data on two ultrasonic sensors, thefirst targeted at short-range, high-sample rate applications, such as robotics, and a second targeteda longer-range applications, such as human presence detection.

HISTOTRIPSY FOR BRAIN APPLICATIONSHistotripsy uses microsecond-length ultrasound pulses togenerate focal cavitation to liquefy the target tissue intoacellular homogenate. Applied through excised humanskulls, histotripsy has been shown to treat locations fromthe skull base to 5 mm from the inner skull surface as well
as volume targets. By using a very low duty cycle (<0.1%), overheating to the skull can be prevented.
This allows transcranial histotripsy to overcome the treatment location and volume limitations oftranscranial focused ultrasound thermal ablation. This talk presents the latest results on thedevelopment of transcranial histotripsy systems, in vivo data on using transcranial MR-guided
histotripsy in the porcine brain through an excised human skull, and in vivo data on transcranial

5G: REVOLUTION OR EVOLUTION?
5G has been hailed by many in the industry as the advent of mm-wave
technology becoming mainstream in mobile device communication.
However, over the last several years, the focus of what is indeed being
implemented and rolled out has shifted away significantly from the mmwave domain. And there are good reasons for this. This paper will
discuss the underlying physical principles, of propagation loss,
diffraction, materials penetration, power efficiency and battery lifetime.
Based on these underpinnings, we will take a look at the dynamics of
the 5G roll-out over the next few years. Furthermore, the impact on RF
front-end module architecture will be discussed. The conclusions will be broken down into
consequences for the individual technologies involved, and the technological and architectural
challenges that could potentially arise. Finally, the three pillars of mobile technology development –performance, size, and cost – will be re-evaluated under the boundary conditions derived from above.

IMPROVING B-MODE ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMANCEFOR FOCAL LIVER LESIONS USING DEEP LEARNING
The liver is the largest digestive gland in the body and there are dozensof types of focal liver lesions (FLLs) including benign, malignant andnon-neoplastic lesions. It is important to precisely identify thecharacteristics of FLLs for it is the basis of providing reasonable
treatment guidance for patients. Ultrasound (US), as the most widelyused imaging modality in work-up of FLLs, its diagnosis of FLLs is often
subjective process requiring substantial experience and expertise ofradiologists. Therefore, diagnosis of FLLs has led to increasingly use
the time and cost-consuming MRI/CT and even invasive biopsy inclinical practice. It is necessary for the development of methods that serve as an instrument that
identify the dominant US features to accurately classify FLLs and narrow the gap between theradiologists with different experience level. Deep convolutional neural network, as a newly emerging
technique, provides new opportunity for FLLs diagnosis by US image. It can provide automatedquantification of large amounts of image features from medical images, which has the potential touncover disease characteristics that fail to be appreciated by naked eyes. In this presentation, we will
demonstrate a deep convolutional neural network model for classifying of malignant from benign FLLs.
Our study indicates that the diagnosis capability of our model was comparable to contrast enhanced
CT and superior to skilled radiologists with 15-year experience in FLLs diagnosis performance. The
high performance of deep learning model may fuel the time-consuming and relatively expensive
contrast enhanced imaging to concentrate on uncertain or complex cases in order to filtrate highly
benign or non-urgent cases for clinicians. In addition, it can also maximize healthcare resources andassist less-experienced radiologists from low-volume hospitals to improve their diagnostic accuracyof liver cancer, similar to the level of CECT and rich-experienced radiologists. Furthermore, it has ahigh potential to contribute to narrow the gap between the radiologists with different experience level
and reduce the barriers for rural and community hospitals with relatively scarce of medical resources
to improve the FLL diagnosis.

NEW FASCINATING PROPERTIES AND POTENTIAL APPLICATIONSOF LOVE SURFACE WAVESLove surface waves are elastic waves propagating in waveguides
composed of a surface layer deposited on a semi-infinite substrate.
The mechanical displacement of Love waves decreases rapidly, as
a function of depth, therefore the energy of the Love wave can attainvery high densities in the vicinity of the waveguide surface. This fact
was crucial in development of Love wave sensors that are strongly
affected by the parameters of the surrounding viscoelastic liquid. On
the other hand, Love surface waves have many unique features thatdifferentiate them from other types of surface waves, such Rayleigh,Lamb or Stoneley waves. For example, Love surface waves: have
only one shear horizontal (SH) component of vibration (mechanicaldisplacement) have mathematical model with a moderate complexity have an exact analogue inelectromagnetism (TM and TE modes in planar dielectric waveguides) have a direct analogy inquantum mechanics (quantum particles in potential wells). Love surface waves were predicted
theoretically in 1911 by the prominent British scientist A. E. H. Love, who analyzed seismic dataregistered in wake of Earthquakes. In fact, Love surface waves are most destructive of all seismic
waves, since they may generate huge shear forces that can literally cut-off foundations of most civilengineering structures. On the other hand, Love surface waves revealed their benign face by the endof the twentieth century with the advent of Love wave bio, chemo and physico-sensors withparameters superior to those achievable with other types of acoustic sensors. Despite their centennial
history Love surface waves do not cease to surprise us by unveiling their new unexpected properties
and possibilities for novel applications. Indeed, in recent two years the author of this presentation
discovered a number of new original phenomena that occur in lossy Love wave waveguides loadedwith a viscoelastic liquid that were entirely unexpected and are to some extent completelycounterintuitive. As an example we can mention the occurrence of abrupt changes in phase velocity
v_p and attenuation α, as a function of viscosity η_0 of the loading Newtonian liquid resonant-likemaxima in attenuation, as a function of thickness “”h”” of a lossy surface layer and frequency fmaximum in attenuation α as a function of viscosity η_0 of the loading Newtonian liquid minimum inphase velocity v_p as a function of viscosity η_0 of the loading Newtonian liquid In fact, the phasevelocity v_p and attenuation α of the Love wave can abruptly change not only their values but also
their qualitative character, e.g., from aperiodic to oscillatory and vice-versa, for a certain value ofviscosity of the loading Newtonian liquid. The above phenomena can occur only in multilayer Lovewave waveguides with a number of surface layers N≥2. These phenomena may be attributed to asudden repartition of Love wave energy from one surface layer to another. The author intends to coverin this presentation the following topics: 1. basic properties of Love surface waves 2. applications ofLove waves in seismology and sensor technology 3. mathematical models (direct Sturm-Liouvilleproblems) of Love surface waves 4. analogies in electromagnetism and quantum mechanics 5. power
flow in Love wave waveguides (Poynting vector) 6. new counter intuitively phenomena discovered inLove wave waveguides: a) minimum of the phase velocity as a function of viscosity of the loading
Newtonian liquid b) maximum of the attenuation as a function of viscosity of the loading Newtonian
liquid 7. new unexpected phenomena in Love wave waveguides: a) sudden qualitative changes inphase velocity and attenuation as a function of waveguide parameters b) resonant-like attenuation ofLove waves, etc. 8. new mathematical tools applied in analyze of Love wave waveguides a) Inverse

TOWARDS A TUMOR-FREE WORLD: WHEN ULTRASOUND MEETSIMMUNOTHERAPY
Combined checkpoint blockade (e.g., PD1/PD-L1) with traditional clinicaltherapies can be hampered by side effects and low tumour-therapeutic
outcome, hindering broad clinical translation. Here we report a combined

withcheckpointblockade

Allcomponentsofthenanosonosensitizers (HMME/R837@Lip) are clinically approved, whereinliposomes act as carriers to co-encapsulate sonosensitizers (hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether(HMME)) and immune adjuvant (imiquimod (R837)). Using multiple tumour models, we demonstratethat combining nanosonosensitizersaugmented SDT with anti-PD-L1 induces an anti-tumour
response, which not only arrests primary tumour progression, but also prevents lung metastasis.
Furthermore, the combined treatment strategy offers a long-term immunological memory function,
which can protect against tumour rechallenge after elimination of the initial tumours. Therefore, thiswork represents a proof-of-concept combinatorial tumour therapeutics based on noninvasive tumourstherapeutic modality with immunotherapy.

MICROBUBBLE-MEDIATED DRUG DELIVERY REVEALEDMICROSECOND AND MICROMETER RESOLUTION

AT

Treating cardiovascular disease and cancer using ultrasoundactivated vibrating microbubbles (1-10 µm in size) has shownpreclinical potential to boost drug therapy and reduce side-effects
because drugs are delivered locally. Recently, several clinical trials
have demonstrated safety of the treatment and increased survival.
Despite advances in the field, the underlying mechanism of
microbubble-mediated drug delivery are poorly understood. One of the reasons for this is the huge
range in time scales involved. The time scale of the microbubble vibration is 2 million times per secondin a 2 MHz ultrasound field (microseconds), which is many orders of magnitude smaller than the timescale of physiological effects (milliseconds), let alone that of biological effects (seconds to minutes)
and clinical relevance (days to months). To allow the investigation of the microbubble-cell-druginteraction at a microsecond and micrometer resolution, unique technology was created by coupling
the Brandaris 128 ultra-high-speed camera (~25 million frames per second recordings) to a custombuilt confocal microscope. In this talk, I will describe new insights gained into the microbubble-celldrug interaction by using this technology for two different cell types: endothelial cells and bacteria.
For endothelial cells the focus will be on the microbubble behavior in relation to the drug delivery
pathways sonoporation and cell-cell contact opening, as well as how intracellular calcium fluctuations
play a role. Novel microbubble-mediated treatments for the life-threatening disease bacterial infective
endocarditis, either on native heart valves or cardiac devices such as pacemakers, are the focus forthe bacteria biofilm work.

SOFT TRANSDUCER MATERIALS – POLYMER-BASED ELECTRETSFOR SENSORS AND ACTUATORS
Since the first report of natural electrets – pieces of amber that could
attract or repel light objects or draw tiny electric sparks – more than 2500
years ago, electret science and technology underwent more and more
rapid developments via the electrophorus (1760s) and wax-resin
mixtures (1920s) to modern polymer-based electrets. Today, we candistinguish between space-charge electrets, electro-electrets (a.k.a. dielectric elastomers), ferro- or
piezo-electrets, ferro-, pyro- and piezoelectric polymers and ceramic-polymer composites. Stressinduced movements of their internal electric charges or dipoles, and electric-field-induced
displacements of the charged or poled polymer, give rise to direct and inverse electromechanical/piezo-electrical effects, respectively. Longitudinal and transverse transduction effects
may be used in sensors (micro-energy harvesters, microphones, etc.) and in actuators (sound andultrasound emitters, haptic-feedback devices, soft micro-actuators, etc.). A significant range ofdensities, as well as isotropic or anisotropic elastic properties, of the various soft materials lead to abroad range of specific acoustic impedances. Recent advances, e.g. in polymer science andtechnology, in rather stable high-field dielectrics, and in additive manufacturing of patterned andheterogeneous materials, promise a bright future for soft transducer materials – in particular, but not
only, for sound and ultrasound applications.

Neuromodulation is a fundamental tool in neuroscience to explore
neural mechanisms from molecular to behavioral levels. Recently,
ultrasound has been found to be an effective noninvasive
neuromodulation tool. This cutting-edge discovery may have great
potential for the therapy of many functional brain diseases. One major
limitation of ultrasound neuromodulation is the accurate steering of
ultrasound beams throughout the skull to the target position inside thebrain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an important role in
the precise and dynamic guidance of ultrasound neuromodulation by
providing target localization, neural activity monitoring, and safetyassurance. In the presentation, MRI-guided ultrasound neuromodulation techniques are reviewed,
including transcranial focused ultrasound technology, localization and visualization by magnetic
resonance (MR) acoustic radiation force imaging, brain activity monitoring and assessment byfunctional MRI, and applications of ultrasound neuromodulation. The principles of all the abovementioned techniques are briefly introduced, and some preliminary results of our group are described.
The results of our study showed that ultrasound stimulation of the primary visual cortex of rhesus
monkeys activated the target area and its downstream and associated brain regions, which suggested
that ultrasound stimulation is capable of exciting neuronal activities that may be transmitted to related
functional regions. MRI is believed to be a powerful imaging modality for accurate ultrasoundneuromodulation.

LEVERAGINGSCATTERINGQUANTITATIVE ULTRASOUNDTOUNLOCK

LUNG

Conventional ultrasound imaging of the lung has remained
elusive due to the complexity of the parenchyma. The
millions of air-filled alveoli are responsible for large
amounts of scattering, precluding the common assumptions underlying B-mode imaging. We propose
to leverage this purported weakness. Each scattering event can be seen as an opportunity for theultrasound wave to embed information on the architecture of lung parenchyma. By leveraging
scattering, we developed new methods for the quantitative assessment of the lung. The diffusivity ofultrasound is exploited as a new source of contrast for lung tissue characterization. Lung diseases
such as pulmonary edema and pulmonary fibrosis affect the micro-architecture of the parenchyma.
We show how ultrasound scattering parameters can be used to quantify these changes, and ultimately
be used as a biomarkers for these diseases. There is tremendous potential of such non-invasive
biomarkers for monitoring and follow up of response to treatment. Finally, we will also show how theseconcepts can be used for ultrasound-based lung imaging to detect and localize pulmonary nodules inreal time during surgery, to ensure lung nodules resection with safe margins so no cancerous tissue
is left behind.

USING ACOUSTICS TO DEMONSTRATE TOPOLOGICAL AND NONHERMITIAN PHYSICS
Acoustic systems are relatively simple to design, implement andcharacterize. As such, they are good platforms to demonstrate newphysics concepts and the associated phenomena. We will use someexamples to illustrate the realization of topological and nonHermitian physics in acoustic systems. We show that an acoustic
metamaterial consisting of an array of spinning cylindrical inclusions
can possess many novel properties that cannot be achieved in static
systems. These interesting effects include folded bulk bands and folded interface-state bands. The
folding of bands inside the first Brillouin zone is generally not possible because such dispersions
violate causality principles but in acoustic systems with rotation, this is made possible by a rotationinduced anti-resonance of compressibility and the rotational Doppler effect. Robust one-way transport
properties can be enabled by non-degenerate interface states, but within the same band, interface
states at different frequencies can have different propagation directions. If we form an interface
between two acoustic crystals composing of spinning cylinders with equal but opposite spinningvelocities embedded in a liquid, long-range and robust acoustic pulling can be enabled by a pair of
one-way chiral surface waves supported on the interface between two counter-rotating phononic
crystals. When the chiral surface mode with a relative small Bloch wave vector is excited, the particle
located in the interface waveguide will scatter the excited surface mode to another chiral surface
mode with a greater Bloch wave vector, and resulting in an acoustic pulling force, irrespective of thesize and material of the particle. The absence of backscattering channels make the pulling force
robust against local disorders, and the particle can be pulled in any trajectory as determined by theshape of the interface. This new acoustic pulling scheme overcomes some of the limitations of the
traditional acoustic pulling using structured beams, such as short pulling distances, straight-line type29

pulling and strong dependence on the scattering properties of the particle. Acoustic systems are also
good platforms to illustrate exceptional point physics. The signature of non-Hermitian systems is theexistence of exceptional points. In some cases, the exceptional points can form interesting connectedstructures. We will see that an astroid shaped loop of exceptional points can emerge from a nonHermitician Lieb lattice when specific hoppings are introduced. Such interesting exceptional point
structure is realized in an acoustic implementation, which demonstrates that exceptional nexus witha hybrid topological invariant can be formed.

first example focuses on elastic wave filtering, pentamode materials are shown to be able to support
only single polarization mode (either transverse wave or longitudinal wave) depending on theirmicrostructure design, which can hardly be possible with traditional solids. The functions of elastic
wave mode splitting and sound isolation in water with this kind of metamaterials are illustrated. The
second example explores broadband underwater acoustic cloak. It is shown that by carefully

QUANTUM LEAP IN SIMULATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR
RADIO FREQUENCY ACOUSTIC WAVE DEVICES GIFTEDBY HIERARCHICAL CASCADING TECHNIQUE
This talk is aimed at introducing the hierarchicalcascading technique (HCT) not only as a speed-up toolfor FEM simulation but also as a versatile technique forattacking unexplored problems. In 2016, Koskela, et al.,proposed HCT for fast 2D FEM simulation of SAW devices. The technique is quite powerful when thedevice structure under concern is mainly composed of identical cells and the number of cells N islarge. This is because the time consumption is almost proportional to logN, while the required memoryis almost independent of N. Now HCT-based 2D FEM is widely used in SAW device development.
The author’s group applied HCT to attack various wave excitation and scattering problems including
those believed to be impossible. Examples are SAW scattering at irregularity inserted in an infinitely
long grating and that at IDT finger tips. The traveling wave excitation source proposed by the author’sgroup fits well with HCT and can be adapted efficiently in the analysis. In addition, combination of
HCT with high-end GPU makes 3D FEM simulation possible for practical SAW device structures. Now
we can apply periodic 2D, full 2D, periodic 3D and full 3D FEM simulations to SAW resonators.
Comparison of results from these simulations enables evaluation of different loss contributions
separately, and field analyses may reveal remaining loss mechanisms hidden in the structures. Oncethe degradation mechanism is understood, we can search possible countermeasures using the fastparameter-scan function of HCT-based FEM.

BREAKING LIMITS IN PHOTOACOUSTIC IMAGING: DEEPER,
FASTER, SMALLER AND MORE COLORFUL
By acoustically detecting the optical absorption contrast in
biological tissues, photoacoustic imaging (PAI) has provenincreasingly powerful for multi-scale anatomical, functional, andmolecular imaging. In PAI, a short-pulsed laser beam illuminates
the biological tissue to generate a small but rapid temperature rise,
which leads to emission of ultrasonic waves due to thermoelastic
expansion. The wideband ultrasonic waves are detected to form ahigh-resolution tomographic image that maps the original opticalabsorption in the tissue. My talk will focus on several major new fronts of PAI that have collectively
enabled fast, miniaturized, deep, and high-sensitivity biomedical applications in functional neuronal
imaging, drug testing, early cancer detection, and interventional therapy. First, PAI has broken thepenetration limit and achieved super-deep (~10 cm) imaging by using advanced internal light delivery,
extending its applications ready into internal organ imaging on large animal models. Second, byinnovating novel scanning technologies, PAI has been accelerated by more than 1000 times inimaging speed with a large field of view and high spatial resolution, allowing for the monitoring ofhighly dynamic biological processes. Third, by adapting novel fabrication technologies in optics andacoustics, miniaturized PAI has achieved handheld, wearable and head-mounted imaging with highspatial–temporal resolutions and high throughput. Lastly, taking advantage of switchable or tunablenear-infrared photoacoustic-specific probes, PAI has improved its sensitivity and specificity by morethan 100 times, enabling highly sensitive detection of malignant cancer, tissue hypoxia, and neuronal
activities.
