Abstract Objective This paper describes the relationship between elastic tissue properties and strain and presents an initial investigation of pulse-echo ultrasound to measure two uncorrelated elastic parameters in tissue-mimicking phantoms….
Abstract Objective To develop a treatment that enhances recovery from envenomation-induced lesions caused by Bothrops jararaca venom by using ultrasound in combination with gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Methods A total of…
Abstract Objective Fat embolism syndrome and cerebral fat emboli are rare yet serious conditions arising from systemic distribution of bone marrow emboli. Emboli are known to produce high-intensity transient signals…
Abstract Objective The rise in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease prevalence, closely linked with metabolic syndromes and obesity, demands accurate, cost-effective diagnostic methods for early-stage fat quantification in the liver….
Abstract Objective There are over 9000 liver transplants in the United States per year, with acute cellular rejection (ACR) being a prevalent early post-transplant complication (20%–40%) treated using corticosteroids. Ischemia-reperfusion…
Abstract Objective Durable and stable phantoms for verifying and validating the new magnetomotive ultrasound technique are lacking. Here we propose a phantom design to address this need. Methods A mixture…
Abstract Objective Elastography images tissue mechanical responses and infers the underlying properties to aid diagnosis and treatment response monitoring. The estimation of absolute or relative tumor properties may vary with…
Abstract Objective To evaluate the response to neoadjuvant therapy in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) using ultrasound(US) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS), with correction to the tumor regression grade (TRG) of…
Abstract Rationale and Objectives Accurate assessment of fetal head station (FHS) is crucial during labor management to reduce the risk of complications and plan the mode of delivery. Although digital…
Abstract Objective Mouse models of hindlimb ischemia (HLI) are used to study peripheral arterial disease and evaluate novel therapies. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a noninvasive perfusion measurement technique that is…
