Complete, balanced resource encompassing  all required technical, theoretical, and applied multidisciplinary  knowledge related to acoustics

Taking a  multidisciplinary approach involving fluid mechanics, physics,  chemistry, electronics, and the life sciences to provide a unified and  competent overview of the field, Acoustic Technologies in Biology and Medicine covers the fundamental principles of acoustic wave generation and  propagation, different acoustic systems and technologies with the  interplay of physical forces, theoretical foundations, and the  state-of-the-art biomedical applications of acoustics. 

State-of-the-art  applications of acoustics in biology and medicine are presented,  including single cell and organism manipulation, acoustic biosensing,  cancer cell isolation (liquid biopsy), cell/tissue stimulation and  ablation, micro-robot actuation, acoustic imaging, and drug delivery. 

Contributed to and edited by highly qualified professionals with significant experience in the field, Acoustic Technologies in Biology and Medicine covers sample topics such as: 

  • Materials  for acoustic wave generation and modulation, ultrasound imaging, and  photoacoustic imaging and sensing for biomedical applications
  • Therapeutic  ultrasound, application of ultrasound responsive reagents for drug  delivery systems, and acoustic levitation and acoustic holograms
  • Application  of ultrasonic waves in bioparticle manipulation and separation,  acoustic biosensors, and acoustic micro and nanorobots in medicine
  • Different  technologies of acoustic systems, including bulk and surface acoustic  wave-based platforms, acoustic imaging, acoustic sensors, and acoustic  levitators

A cornerstone reference  bridging the gap between rapidly advancing acoustic technologies with  state-of-the-art applications in biology and medicine, Acoustic Technologies in Biology and Medicine is an essential resource on the subject for biophysicists, materials  scientists, biotechnologists, bioengineers, sensor developers,  electronics engineers, and all professionals in the greater  biotechnological industry.
