    • Improved methods for providing an image of an internal region of a patient. Embodiments of the invention involve the administration to the patient of a contrast agent which comprises, in an aqueous carrier, a lipid, protein, polymer or surfactant, and a gas. The patient is scanned using ultrasound imaging to obtain a visible image of the region. In embodiments of the invention, the scanning step may comprise applying a first quantity of ultrasound energy to the patient to provide a first image, followed by the application substantially immediately thereafter of a second quantity of ultrasound energy to provide a second image. The first and second images are then processed. The methods are particularly useful for obtaining on-line images of the cardiovascular region which may be employed, for example, to diagnose the presence of diseased tissue in the cardiovascular region of a patient.
    • 用于提供患者内部区域的图像的改进方法。 本发明的实施方案涉及向患者施用造影剂,其在水性载体中包含脂质,蛋白质,聚合物或表面活性剂和气体。 使用超声成像扫描患者以获得该区域的可见图像。 在本发明的实施例中,扫描步骤可以包括向患者施加第一数量的超声能量以提供第一图像,随后基本上立即应用第二数量的超声能量以提供第二图像。 然后处理第一和第二图像。 该方法对于获得可用于例如诊断患者的心血管区域中患病组织的存在的心血管区域的在线图像特别有用。
