Ultrasonic Imaging

Aims & Scope

Ultrasonic Imaging provides rapid publication for original and exceptional papers concerned with the development and application of ultrasonic-imaging technology, with emphasis on medical diagnosis.

Papers deal with theoretical and experimental aspects of advance methods and instrumentation for imaging, Doppler measurements, signal processing, pattern recognition and measurements of ultrasonic parameters.

Clinical evaluation of new techniques, tissue-parameter measurements, mechanisms of ultrasonic-tissue interactions, transducer technology, calibration and standards, and tissue-mimicking phantoms, elasticity measurements, and photoacoustic and acousto-optic technologies also fall within the scope of the journal.

In addition to full-length papers, the journal publishes research notes, comments on papers appearing in the journal, book reviews, and occasional review articles.
