Popis: We present two methods of characterizing high intensity acoustic fields, namely, a non-invasive Schlieren method, and an invasive fiber-optic based one. The instant display makes the Schlieren method very attractive, although because it is a projection method it does not convey all the information available by the more localized sampling provided by the optical fiber. Numerical comparisons as well as the limitations of each method are described in the context of therapeutic ultrasound applications.
