Characterization of digital waveforms using thermodynamic analogs detection of contrast-targeted tissue in vivo

Characterization of digital waveforms using thermodynamic analogs : detection of contrast-targeted tissue in vivo

We describe characterization of backscatter from tumor tissue targeted with a nanoparticle-based ultrasound contrast agent in vivo using analogs of thermodynamic quantities. We apply these waveform characteristics to detection of tumor neovasculature in tumors implanted in athymic nude mice, which w...
