Microbubble contrast agents for echocardiography: rationale, composition, ultrasound interactions, and safety.

Abstract

Imaging the small blood vessels within the myocardium, which contains only a small fraction of the total coronary blood volume, is a significant challenge for ultrasound imaging. Recent advances in microbubble design and ultrasound technology have improved our ability to image the microcirculation. It is essential to understand the fundamentals of microbubble behavior in an ultrasound field and how it impacts technology and safety.
