Ultrasonic imaging of biofilms utilizing echoes from the biofilm/air interface

Ultrasonic imaging of biofilms in water is difficult due to the very low contrast in acoustic impedance between the biofilm and water. In this paper, biofilms exposed to moist air are scanned through the substrate in order to obtain echoes from the biofilm/air interface. A 50 MHz scanning system was...
