Abstract

SUMMARY The main features of the scanning acoustic microscope are reviewed with particular reference to applications in biology and non‐destructive evaluation. Recent developments on imaging the interior of solids are discussed. Proper interpretation of recorded images can lead to maps of velocity and density via the V(z) response. Further improvements in resolving power (using cryogenic liquids or high pressure gases) should make the acoustic microscope a powerful tool in many areas of science and technology.
