This journal publishes research on ultrasound imaging, including quantitative ultrasound (QUS) for medical applications like cancer screening and abdominal monitoring. It also covers acoustic filters, wave imaging techniques for velocity vector imaging, and the development of novel ultrasound systems for wearable devices and quantitative acoustic attenuation mapping. Additionally, the journal explores microelectromechanical resonators, phononic crystals for acceleration sensing, and flexible-array shape calibration frameworks for improved ultrasound image quality.
