摘　　要：超声作为一种安全、经济、便携、快速的成像方法,已经广泛应用于临床的各个领域并几乎涉及每一种人体器官和每一个医学分支.近年来,随着重大疾病早期诊疗的迫切需求,结合物理、工程、技术的综合发展,提出了超声分子成像、定点给药、超声神经调控及诊疗一体化等新技术,生物医学超声将从单纯的成像手段转变为具有精确诊断、调控和治疗的多种功能.本文首先简要介绍生物医学超声基本物理特征(波动、力学和热效应),然后结合我们的研究工作回顾近几年超声在生物医学中的新研究进展(分子影像、操控给药和神经调控等方面),并探讨超声诊疗一体化和超声神经调控在精准医学和脑科学中的应用前景.As a safe, low-cost, portable and fast imaging modality, ultrasound has been widely used in various clinical fields. Ultrasound imaging is used in every branch of medicine and can be used to visualize almost every organ. Recently, numerous new ultrasound technologies, such as microbubble-based nonlinear contrast imaging, ultrasound molecular imaging, ultrasound-assisted targeted drug delivery, ultrasonic neuro-modulation and theranostics-based integrative application, have been developed for early-stage diagnosis and treatment, based on the multi-disciplinary developments in physics, engineering, and biomedicine. The nature of biomedical ultrasound technology is also changing, from being an imaging technology into a multi-functional tool that allows both precise diagnosis and treatment. This review offers a critical analysis of the state-of-the-art biomedical ultrasound technology and its application in clinical diagnosis and drug delivery. In this paper, we first introduce some basic physical characteristics of biomedical ultrasound technology, including its wave and mechanical properties, the history of the development of ultrasound contrast agent microbubbles, and the biomedical effects of ultrasound, such as cavitation and heat deposition. Then, we review the recent progress and our research on the preparation and acoustic characterization of microbubbles, nonlinear ultrasound contrast imaging and ultrasound molecular imaging, and ultrasound-assisted drug delivery and treatment based on the large surface of a drug-loaded microbubble and on the surface modification-enabled elastic shell. In addition, we discuss the integrative applications of ultrasound diagnostics and therapeutics in clinical medicine. Moreover, we review the advances in ultrasound-based deep brain stimulation, which indicates that ultrasound technology might be used as a potential noninvasive tool in neuroscience and in the treatment of brain disorders. Finally, we review the challenges associated with the development of biomedical ultrasoun
