Sources of difference frequency sound in a dual-frequency imaging system with implications for monitoring thermal surgery

(cont.) parametric effect, which can be considered an imaging artifact. Additionally, it may be possible to use the nonlinear interaction of scattered waves to form images that rely on the presence of small scatterers; a technique that may be enhanced with the use of contrast agents containing small scattering micro-bubbles in vivo.
