Due to the intrinsic non-invasive nature, cost-effectiveness, high safety, and real-time
capabilities, besides diagnostic imaging, ultrasound as a typical mechanical wave has been …

Microbubbles (MBs) serve as contrast agents in diagnostic ultrasound (US) imaging.
Contrast harmonic imaging (CHI) of MBs takes advantage of their nonlinear properties that …

Contrast-enhanced imaging has grown significantly in the past two decades. Technology
has evolved from imaging based on linear principles to elaborate pulsing and microbubble …

Objective. Linking cavitation and anatomy was found to be important for predictable
outcomes in focused-ultrasound blood-brain-barrier-opening and requires high resolution …

Background High resolution imaging of the microvasculature plays an important role in both
diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the brain. However, ultrasound pulse‐echo …

Large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke, in which major cerebral arteries such as the internal
carotid and middle cerebral arteries supplying the brain are occluded, is the most …

Radial modulation imaging (RMI) introduces an additional low-frequency (LF) signal to
excite ultrasonic microbubble into different vibration modes, thereby enhancing the echo …

Focused ultrasound (FUS) is an emerging non-invasive and non-ionizing therapeutic
modality for transcranial treatments. Guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), FUS has …
