Comprehensive reference on various laser-generated ultrasound technologies and their applications across fields
Laser-generated Ultrasound Technology explores basic principles, device development, and applications in laser-generated ultrasound. The book delves into the photoacoustic effect and its history and addresses several types of laser-generated ultrasound devices.
This book includes information on:
- Laser-generated ultrasound therapy, covering neuromodulation, drug delivery, and histotripsy/thrombolysis
- Laser-induced ultrasound devices, covering metal-PDMS composite-based devices and carbon nanomaterial-PDMS composite-based devices
- All-optical ultrasound imaging, covering fiber-based ultrasonic excitation, optical detection technology of ultrasound, and biological imaging
- The theory of laser-generated ultrasound pressure, frequency regulation of laser-generated ultrasound, and prediction of laser-induced damage threshold
Laser-generated Ultrasound Technology is an essential introductory resource on the subject for researchers in optics, materials, and biomedical ultrasound.

System requirements:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Install the free reader Adobe Digital Editions prior to download (see eBook Help).
- Tablet/smartphone (Android; iOS): Install the free app Adobe Digital Editions or the app PocketBook before downloading (see eBook Help).
- E-reader: Bookeen, Kobo, Pocketbook, Sony, Tolino and many more (only limited: Kindle).
The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
