Micro-ultrasound for preclinical imaging.
Over the past decade, non-invasive preclinical imaging has emerged as an important tool to facilitate biomedical discovery. Not only have the markets for these tools accelerated, but the numbers of peer-reviewed papers in which imaging end points and biomarkers have been used have grown dramatically. High frequency 'micro-ultrasound' has steadily evolved in the post-genomic era as a rapid, comp...
متن کاملUltrasound imaging-guided noninvasive ultrasound thrombolysis: preclinical results.
BACKGROUND Catheter-based therapeutic ultrasound thrombolysis was recently shown to be effective and safe. The purpose of this work was to study the safety and efficacy of external high-intensity focused ultrasound thrombolysis guided by ultrasound imaging in experimental settings. METHODS AND RESULTS A therapeutic transducer was constructed from an acoustic lens and integrated with an ultras...
متن کاملA Comparison of the Imaging Performance of High Resolution Ultrasound Scanners for Preclinical Imaging
Nine ultrasound transducers from six ultrasound scanners were assessed for their utility for preclinical ultrasound imaging. The transducers were: L8-16, L10-22 (Diasus; Dynamic Imaging Ltd., Livingston, UK); L17-5, L15-7io (iU22; Philips, Seattle, WA, USA), HFL38/13-6 (MicroMaxx; Sonosite Inc., Bothell, WA, USA); il3Lv (Vivid 5; GE, Fairfield, CT, USA), RMV 704 (Vevo 770; Visualsonics Inc., To...
متن کاملA LabVIEW Platform for Preclinical Imaging Using Digital Subtraction Angiography and Micro-CT.
CT and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are ubiquitous in the clinic. Their preclinical equivalents are valuable imaging methods for studying disease models and treatment. We have developed a dual source/detector X-ray imaging system that we have used for both micro-CT and DSA studies in rodents. The control of such a complex imaging system requires substantial software development for whi...
متن کاملThree-dimensional high-frequency ultrasound imaging for longitudinal evaluation of liver metastases in preclinical models.
Liver metastasis is a clinically significant contributor to the mortality associated with melanoma, colon, and breast cancer. Preclinical mouse models are essential to the study of liver metastasis, yet their utility has been limited by the inability to study this dynamic process in a noninvasive and longitudinal manner. This study shows that three-dimensional high-frequency ultrasound can be u...
