Hierarchical Bayesian calibration of mesoscopic models for ultrasound contrast agents from force spectroscopy data

Ultrasound-guided drug and gene delivery (USDG) is a promising non-invasive approach for targeted therapeutic applications. Mechanical properties of encapsulated microbubbles (EMBs), which serve as contrast agents, affect their interactions with ultrasound and are, thus, critical...
