Improvements in the ultrasonic contrast of targeted perfluorocarbon nanoparticles using an acoustic transmission line model

Targeted acoustic contrast agents offer the potential for sensitive ultrasonic detection of pathologic tissues. We have previously reported the development of a ligand-targeted, lipid-encapsulated, liquid perfluorodichlorooctane ultrasonic contrast system with a small nominal particle size (approxim...
