ULTRASOUND AND CMUT TECHNOLOGIES: Principles, Transducer Engineering, Clinical Systems, and Intelligent Imaging - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Ultrasound and CMUT Technologies: Fundamentals, Transducer Design, Clinical Applications, and Intelligent Imaging presents a comprehensive and integrated treatment of ultrasound as both a mature clinical modality and a rapidly evolving intelligent technology platform.

Ultrasound and CMUT Technologies offers a definitive and forward-looking exploration of ultrasound as it evolves from a conventional imaging modality into an intelligent, adaptive clinical and engineering platform. Combining rigorous physical foundations with modern transducer design, the book provides a clear and authoritative account of ultrasound wave physics, image formation, artefacts, and safety.

A distinctive focus is placed on capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs), detailing their operating principles, fabrication methods, architectural innovations, and system-level integration. The text bridges technology and practice by examining diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound applications across major clinical domains, including brain, cardiac, pulmonary, renal, and hepatic imaging, as well as high-intensity focused ultrasound and drug delivery.

The book concludes with emerging trends in artificial intelligence–enabled imaging, automated analysis, and intelligent ultrasound systems. Written for engineers, researchers, and clinicians, it presents ultrasound not just as an imaging tool, but as a foundational technology for next-generation intelligent medicine and sensing systems.
