Ultrasonic imaging is non-ionizing, real-time, cost-efficient, and portable. These unique advantages make it a prominent tool in modern medicine. Our group is working to advance medical ultrasound by developing new imaging technologies and processing algorithms. We test our methods in specially designed tissue mimicking materials, ex vivo tissue preparations, and in vivo studies.
