Abstract

The 34th annual Advances in Contrast Ultrasound (ACU) International Bubble Conference convened in Chicago, IL on September 5-6, 2019 to feature new directions of research, pre-clinical and first-in-man clinical trials and novel clinical applications highlighting the diversity and utility of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). An expert group comprised of clinicians, engineers, basic scientists, government officials, attorneys, and industry partners convened to collaborate on cutting-edge ultrasound enhancement technology. Utilizing this information, the International Contrast Ultrasound Society (ICUS) continues to have cause to advocate for the safe and appropriate use of CEUS with expanding indications and applications.
