Contrast agents in diagnostic ultrasound.

J Ophir1, K J Parker.   

Abstract

We review the field of contrast agents in diagnostic ultrasound. The progress in the development of various classes of contrast agents such as free and encapsulated gas bubbles, colloidal suspensions, emulsions, and aqueous solutions is described. The mechanisms for production of backscatter contrast, as well as attenuation contrast and speed of sound contrast are explained. Finally, the potential advantages and disadvantages of various classes of contrast agents are compared.
