Nonlinear detection techniques of microbubbles. (A) Harmonic imaging. (B) Pulse inversion (PI). (C) Amplitude modulation (AM). Here is an example that the amplitude of the first transmitted pulse is twice the amplitude of the second transmitted pulse. (D) Contrast pulse sequence (CPS). Adapted from Caskey et al.
