Analysis of background parenchymal echogenicity on breast ultrasound
The purpose of this study was to analyze the background parenchymal echotexture (BP echo) on breast ultrasound in detail and to evaluate the relation BP echo with menopausal status. In addition, we correlated BP echo with mammographic breast density (MGD) and background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).The institutional review board of our hospital approved this...
متن کاملEnhancement of fibrinolysis in vitro by ultrasound.
The effect of ultrasound on the rate of fibrinolysis has been investigated using an in vitro system. Plasma or blood clots containing a trace label of 125I fibrin were suspended in plasma containing plasminogen activator and intermittently exposed to continuous wave 1-MHz ultrasound at intensities up to 8 W/cm2. Plasma clot lysis at 1 h with 1 microgram/ml recombinant tissue plasminogen activat...
متن کاملBlinking Phase-Change Nanocapsules Enable Background-Free Ultrasound Imaging
Microbubbles are widely used as contrast agents to improve the diagnostic capability of conventional, highly speckled, low-contrast ultrasound imaging. However, while microbubbles can be used for molecular imaging, these agents are limited to the vascular space due to their large size (> 1 μm). Smaller microbubbles are desired but their ultrasound visualization is limited due to lower echogenic...
متن کاملEnhancement of temozolomide stability by loading in chitosan-carboxylated polylactide-based nanoparticles
In the presented work, amphiphilic nanoparticles based on chitosan and carboxy-enriched polylactic acid have been prepared to improve the stability of the pro-drug temozolomide in physiological media by encapsulation. The carrier, with a diameter in the range of 150-180 nm, was able to accommodate up to 800 μg of temozolomide per mg of polymer. The obtained formulation showed good stability in ...
متن کاملP-103: Enhancement of Colonization on Mouse Spermatogonial Stem Cell by Low Intensity Ultrasound Stimulation
Background: Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are the foundation of spermatogenesis. New procedure such as sound wave especially low intensity ultrasound (LIUS) can be effective on increasing the number of cells. In this study we investigated the effect of LIUS stimulation on mouse SSCs. Materials and Methods: Isolated SSCs from neonate mice cultured in DMEM culture medium with 10% fetal bovine ...
