Abstract
The background of the ultrasonic laboratory in a clinical research entity, and the main activities in the past and presence are shortly reviewed. The actual activities include: Pulse-echo- and Doppler-methods; research and development (hardware and software) in tissue characterization, biometry, calibration/standardisation of equipment; clinical application and evaluation of the results; and ultrasonic therapeutic and surgical equipment.
