Abstract Objective Scoliosis, a 3-D spinal deformity, requires early detection and intervention. Ultrasound curve angle (UCA) measurement using ultrasound images has emerged as a promising diagnostic tool. However, calculating the…
Abstract Objective Antibody-based therapy has emerged as a powerful tool for targeted treatment of neurological diseases, such as brain cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. However, direct, scalable, and safe confirmation of…
Abstract Super-resolution (SR) ultrasound imaging dramatically improves the resolution of microvascular images beyond the diffraction limit. It is well-established that ultrasound with contrast agents, such as those used in SR,…
Abstract Objective Blood flow imaging and perfusion assessment of the hepatic portal vein are critical for the diagnosis of several liver diseases, including cirrhosis, primary and metastatic liver tumors. However,…
Abstract Objective No clinical standard exists for intraoperative fetal cardiac monitoring during maternal-fetal surgery for fetal myelomeningocele (fMMC). This pilot study explores the feasibility of using speckle tracking echocardiography (STE)-derived…
Abstract Objective Ultrasound-based velocity vector imaging (US-VVI) is a promising technique to gain insight into complex blood flow patterns that play an important role in atherosclerosis. However, in vivo validation…
Abstract Parathyroid ultrasound is widely used in clinical practice and plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of parathyroid diseases. Nevertheless, ultrasound physicians frequently encounter a number of…
Abstract Objective To perform the first known investigation of differences between real-time and offline B-mode and short-lag spatial coherence (SLSC) images when evaluating fluid or solid content in 60 hypoechoic…
Abstract Objective The response of ultrasound contrast agents is sensitive to ambient pressure, especially via their scattered subharmonic signal, which makes them a promising candidate for non-invasive pressure measurements in…
Office based interventional procedures continue to increase in number and scope. An overview of the Outpatient Endovascular and Interventional Society (OEIS) National Registry (OEISNR) is described in this article. Currently…
