Subharmonic emissions from Ultrasound Contrast Agents (UCAs) were studied by a Pulse Inversion method in order to assess the feasibility of implementation of this technique to subharmonic imaging. Interesting results concerning the dependence of the subharmonic emission with respect to initial pulse shape are presented. The experimentation was performed also by varying the acoustic pressure and concentration of the contrast agent (SonoVue®)
