title: Influence of microbubble size on postexcitation collapse thresholds for single ultrasound contrast agents using double passive cavitation detection.
abstract: For the first time, and using an acoustical method, it has been shown experimentally that the inertial cavitation threshold pressure of an albumin-shelled microbubble is significantly correlated with its initial size.
