Abstract :
Acoustic microscopy is emerging as an important analytical technique serving the needs of both biomedical and materials technology. Based upon imaging of specimens with elastic waves at VHF and UHF frequencies, acoustic microscopes reveal structural-mechanical properties with high magnification. A review of the techniques and their applications are presented.
