“…Through a combination of advancements in electronics, material science, and signal processing, modern ultrasound devices have developed from their roots in SONAR into a versatile technology that is fundamental to many scientific and industrial processes, as well as being integral to many everyday devices [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. Today, ultrasound is used for imaging, flaw detection, surface cleaning, navigation, ranging, and haptics, among other applications across numerous fields [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. However, it is perhaps most synonymous with its medical applications, particularly in medical imaging.…”

Drug delivery to the anterior and posterior segments of the eye is impeded by anatomical and physiological barriers. Increasingly, the bioeffects produced by ultrasound are being proven effective for mitigating the impact of these barriers on ocular drug delivery, though there does not appear to be a consensus on the most appropriate system configuration and operating parameters for this application. In this review, the fundamental aspects of ultrasound physics most pertinent to drug delivery are presented; the primary phenomena responsible for increased drug delivery efficacy under ultrasound sonication are discussed; an overview of common ocular drug administration routes and the associated ocular barriers is also given before reviewing the current state of the art of ultrasound-mediated ocular drug delivery and its potential future directions.

Sewage pipe deterioration has been one of the factors causing huge asset losses and urban hazards worldwide. For more efficient and reliable management, a variety of monitoring and non-destructive testing techniques have been developed for defect inspection and condition assessment of sewer pipes. In the present paper, the monitoring approaches of sewage pipes in the form of operational monitoring, structural monitoring, and durability monitoring are outlined. The fundamentals and features of various NDT techniques for different target detect locations are presented. The stereo vision, LIDAR, and laser 3D scanning technologies that might serve to architect the digital twin of the pipeline were also described. What's more, the capabilities and limitations of these technologies are discussed and summarized in tables. Some possible visions for the development of inspection and quantitative evaluation of sewage pipes are also discussed. In practice, it is suggested that visual inspection techniques are the most feasible for the evaluation of underground pipes. In terms of quantitative and automated evaluation, visual inspection robots equipped with stereo vision or laser 3D scanning technology are the most promising.
