The refraction and scattering of nonlinear acoustic waves play an important role in the realistic application of medical ultrasound. One cause of these effects is the tissue dependence of the nonlinear medium behavior. A method that is able to model those effects is essential for ...
Numerical methods capable of modeling nonlinear pressure wave fields propagating through inhomogeneous biomedical tissue are essential for the design and optimization of ultrasound transducers or devices. The Iterative Nonlinear Contrast Source (INCS) method is an accurate method ...
Research on nonlinear medical ultrasound has been increased over the lastdecade and has resulted in a wide range of numerical methods for the modeling ofthe nonlinear distortion of a propagating pressure wave. However, when appliedto realistic configurations, the majority of thes ...
Biomedical tissues usually show inhomogeneity in their acoustic mediumparameters. These inhomogeneities cause refraction and scattering of diagnosticand therapeutic ultrasound waves. A method that is able to model the effects ofinhomogeneity in the attenuation and in the nonlinea ...
Ultrasound is a women friendly breast cancer examination method. To facilitate the design of new imaging modalities and imaging algorithms, software is required to compute the transient acoustic pressure wave field in inhomogeneous media. A frequency domain integral equation is f ...
