This lecture will provide a brief summary of advanced ultrasound imaging techniques including those currently under development or initially implemented on research systems and those being researched for future clinical application. Discussions will include ultrasound elastography, non-Doppler imaging of alternative acoustic parameters, quantification of perfusion using contrast agents, targeting and therapeutic applications of contrast agents, high frequency imaging and developments in portable ultrasound systems.
