We develop new ultrasound technology to enable advances in biomedical research and clinical practice.
Our lab developed micro-ultrasound, a tool that allows detailed noninvasive investigation of living organisms. Most of our research is with micro-ultrasound imaging, which uses high-frequency ultrasound devices and systems to image tissue with resolution up to ten-fold better than standard clinical ultrasound. We also investigate microbubble contrast agents that enhance the ultrasound signal from the tissue or vasculature.
