Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound using microbubble-based ultrasound contrast agents to accomplish noninvasive subharmonic aided pressure estimation (SHAPE) in a region of interest (ROI) of a subject. The method of the invention provides a non-invasive, direct, and accurate method for pressure estimation.
