Abstract: "This is a substantial revision of a respected work that details the latest advances in ultrasound technology related to biomedical applications. This includes such topics as elastrography, portable scanners, ultrasound molecular imaging, preclinical high frequency imaging, 2D array and 4D imaging techniques. Each chapter has been considerably updated and expanded. A new chapter has been added on new developments such as elastography and minature scanners. New case studies and examples throughout the book are also included in this new edition"--
