Özet

Acoustic technologies have played an increasingly significant role in both biology

and medicine, empowering scientists and clinicians to explore and understand the

intricate workings of living organisms and develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic

approaches. From ultrasound imaging to acoustic tweezers, from acoustic

biosensors to acoustic stimulation, acoustic technologies have become indispensable

tools in the arsenal of researchers and practitioners in these fields.

Acoustic Technologies in Biology and Medicine is designed to be a cornerstone

reference bridging the rapidly advancing acoustic technologies with state-of-the-art

applications in biology and medicine. The research in acoustics for biology and

medicine requires a multidisciplinary approach involving fluid mechanics, physics,

chemistry, electronics, and the life sciences. The burgeoning success and eminence

of this field is fueled by the realization of groundbreaking technological innovations

and impactful solutions addressing significant biological problems. Thus, it is

imperative to present this field to a diverse audience spanning multiple engineering

disciplines and the life sciences, targeting their involvement and education on the

basic principles, breadth of technologies, and interdisciplinary applications of the

acoustics. In this respect, Acoustic Technologies in Biology and Medicine adopts a

unique role and context to introduce the graduate students and professionals from

a broad range of backgrounds to this active research field, aiming to increase the

synergy and interaction between the engineers and life scientists.

The book takes an interdisciplinary approach by covering the mechanistic and

physical basics, as well as the applications. First, the book covers the underlying

physical and theoretical principles of acoustic technologies. This aims to help the

reader grasp the fundamental principles of acoustics. Second, different technologies

of acoustic systems, including bulk and surface acoustic wave-based platforms,

acoustic imaging, acoustic sensors, and acoustic levitators, are discussed. A clear

understanding of the principles, advantages, and disadvantages of different acoustic

technologies is crucial for evaluating and determining which acoustic methods are

most suitable for particular biological applications. Third, state-of-the-art applications

of acoustics in biology andmedicine are presented. These applications include

single cell and organism manipulation, acoustic biosensing, cancer cell isolation

(liquid biopsy), cell/tissue stimulation and ablation,micro-robot actuation, acoustic

imaging, and drug delivery.

The book is intended for a broad audience, including researchers and students

in physics, biology, and engineering, as well as clinicians and practitioners in

medicine. It is our hope that this book will provide a useful reference and inspire

further research and innovation in the exciting and rapidly evolving field of acoustic

technologies in biology and medicine.
