Microvascular flow imaging is a diagnostic tool that may provide additional value over conventional color and power Doppler imaging, potentially obviating the need for contrast-enhanced US in certa... Vascular imaging with color and power Doppler is a useful tool in the assessment of various disease processes. Assessment of blood flow, from infarction and ischemia to hyperemia, in organs, neopla...
Combined US-triggered microbubble destruction and hepatocellular carcinoma radioembolization showed improved treatment response compared with radioembolization alone and no changes in vital signs o... Background US contrast agents are gas-filled microbubbles (MBs) that can be locally destroyed by using external US. Among other bioeffects, US-triggered MB destruction, also known as UTMD, has been...
Subharmonic-aided pressure estimation measurements correlate well with hepatic venous pressure gradient measurements and allow identification of participants with portal hypertension and those at e... Background The current standard for assessing the severity of portal hypertension is the invasive acquisition of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). A noninvasive US-based technique called sub...
