Acoustic radiation force

ID: acoustic-radiation-force

Acoustic radiation force is a phenomenon that occurs when an acoustic wave, such as ultrasound, interacts with an object or a medium. It results from the pressure variations produced by the sound waves as they propagate and can lead to a net force acting on small particles, bubbles, or biological tissues within the medium. ### Key Aspects of Acoustic Radiation Force: 1. **Mechanism**: When an ultrasound wave passes through a medium, it generates regions of high and low pressure.
