A contrast agent is administered to a patient by inhalation into the patient's lungs. The agent is transmitted through the lungs into the patient's bloodstream, for transport to a non-lung portion of the patient to be imaged. A portion of the patient containing the microbubbles is subjected to an ultrasound scan, so as to obtain an enhanced ultrasonically generated image of the patient.

Un agent de contraste est administré à un patient par inhalation dans les poumons de ce dernier. L'agent est transmis au courant sanguin du patient par les poumons, afin d'être transporté jusque dans une partie autre que les poumons du patient dont on veut obtenir une image. Une partie du patient contenant les microbulles est soumises à un échogramme de manière à obtenir une image améliorée du patient, générée par ultrasons.
