Abstract

In this chapter the detection and measurement of ultrasound with frequencies up to a few gigahertz will be described. For sound with still higher frequencies, i.e. for hypersound, specific methods have been developed which are not suited to lower frequencies. They will be discussed in Chapter VII.
