Combining optics and ultrasound leads to many powerful techniques for probing and manipulating matter with applications from medical imaging through the non-destructive testing of engineering materials to fundamental materials physics on the nanoscale. Following a highly successful meeting sponsored by the Institute of Physics in 2013 we are pleased to announce Optics+Ultrasound II. This will cover all aspects of combining light and sound.

This meeting includes a special session on ultra high frequency and nanoscale ultrasound.

Suggested topics include but are not limited to: medical imaging / non destructive testing / generation / detection / photoacoustic imaging / ultrasound modulated optical tomography / novel contrast agents e.g. nanoparticles, microbubbles / optical detection of ultrasound / reconstruction algorithms / modelling of light sound interaction / elastography / thin films / structure materials / phononics / tranducers and sensors
