Laser-driven resonance of dye-doped oil-coated microbubbles: Experimental study

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging offers several attractive features as a biomedical imaging modality, including excellent spatial resolution and functional information such as tissue oxygenation. A key limitation, however, is the contrast to noise ratio that can be obtained from tissue depths greater than 1-2 mm. Microbubbles coated with an...

The NLR/NGTE joint programme on the measurement of attenuation and impedance in acoustic flow duct facilities.

The National Aerospace Laboratory NLR in the Netherlands and the National Gas Turbine Establishment NOTE operate similar acoustic flow duct facilities but with differences in their respective approaches to the measurement of attenuation and impedance of duct linings. A joint exercise was arranged with the object of comparing methods and results,...
