Exposure Criteria for Medical Diagnostic Ultrasound: II. Criteria Based on All Known Mechanisms
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
This report offers current views on exposure criteria for medical diagnostic ultrasound. Topics covered include: nonthermal mechanisms for bioeffects, noninertial cavitation, nonlinear bubble responses and inertial cavitation, models for exposure estimation in human beings, and epidemiology of ultrasound exposure.
