Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Ultrasonic biomedical microimaging aims to display the internal structures of intact tissue specimens with spatial resolution of 10-100mm. systems will be developed to investigate four approaches to microimaging, three employing 100 MHz ultrasound (reflexion, reflex transmission and synthetic aperture methods) and one employing the Doppler effect at lower frequency. The performance of these systems will be characterised by scanning phantoms. Pilot microimaging studies of some biomedical tissue specimens will be performed. The results will be analysed to define design criteria for microimaging systems for clinical evaluation.
