Abstract
In this study we analyze the behavior of individual experimental ultrasonic contrast bubbles, insonofied by 500 kHz ultrasound, at acoustic pressures between 0.06 and 0.66 MPa. The oscillations, were observed under a microscope with a fast framing camera. It is concluded that apparently identical bubbles can expand to different maximal diameters
