Preferred Label : microscopy, acoustic;
MeSH definition : A scientific tool based on ULTRASONOGRAPHY and used not only for the observation of
microstructure in metalwork but also in living tissue. In biomedical application,
the acoustic propagation speed in normal and abnormal tissues can be quantified to
distinguish their tissue elasticity and other properties.;
