Abstract
Targeted microbubbles detected with high-frequency ultrasound can establish the molecular expression of blood vessels with submillimeter resolution. To improve microbubble-specific imaging at high frequencies, the subharmonic and second harmonic signal from individual microbubbles were measured as a function of size and pressure. Single phospholipid-shell microbubbles (1.1 to 5.0 microm in diameter) bound to gelatin, co-aligned with an optical microscope and transducer, were insonated with 30 MHz Gaussian-enveloped pulses at pressures from 20 kPa to 1 MPa with -6 dB one-way bandwidths of 11%, 20% and 45%. A subharmonic signal (15 MHz) was detected above a pressure threshold of 110 kPa--independent of bandwidth. The signal peaked for microbubbles 1.60 microm in diameter subject to 20% and 11% bandwidth pulses, and 1.80 microm for 45% bandwidth pulses, for pressures up to 400 kPa, agreeing with the notion that microbubbles insonated at twice their resonant frequency preferentially emit a subharmonic component. For pressures between 400 kPa and 1 MPa, a broader range of microbubbles emitted a subharmonic signal, and microbubbles below 1.70 mum in diameter were disrupted. The second harmonic signal measured, within the limited experimental conditions, was consistent with nonlinear propagation. Further, the results shed light on the effect of the shell on the phase of the subharmonic signal with respect to the fundamental signal.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
