• Resumen

  • The reliable transcranial imaging of brain inner structures for diagnostic purposes is deemed crucial owing to the decisive importance and contribution of the brain in human life. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the potential application of medical ultrasounds to transcranial imaging using advanced techniques, such as the total focussing method.
