Research abstract
Ultrasonic imaging is potentially one of the most versatile diagnostic tools in medicine, yet it istransducer designs. New applications of acoustical microscopy, performed at frequencies above 200 MHminiature transducer geometries to enable in vivo applications and to enhance present in vitro capabtechniques will be used to create piezoceramic transducer elements with novel geometries. In Phase Ititanate (PZT) will be used as the active piezoceramic material.
