This Technical Report provides descriptions of 25 techniques that have been found useful for detecting and
characterizing small gas-filled cavities or bubbles, and for monitoring cavitation activity. Acoustical, optical
and electrical methods are among those employed for determining numbers, sizes and spatial distributions
of bubbles. Physical, chemical and biological tests are used in monitoring cavitation activity. The
procedures described have been applied to medicine, to oceanography and to materials processing.
Guidance is offered on the techniques which have been found suitable for specific applications.
Advantages and disadvantages are discussed. References are provided for further reading.
