Scientists currently use long-wave pulses of ultrasound to deliver drugs, which can cause side effects. These new findings from Imperial on shorter-wave pulses could have implications for how drugs ...
I still vividly remember the first time we observed neurons responding not to audible sound, but to concentrated, precisely ...
Ultrasound has a wide range of medical applications, including imaging, blood flow measurement, cancerous lesion detection, bone densitometry, and needle or catheter guidance. The ultrasound ...
New ultrasound-based wearable measures blood pressure from deep vessels without a cuff, improving accuracy and comfort.
Conventional ultrasound (cUS) and functional ultrasound (fUS) both utilize megahertz-level sound waves to image inside the body; however, beyond this, the similarities end. This article aims to ...
Using ultrasound to boost the effectiveness of IV thrombolysis—an approach called sonothrombolysis—is feasible but does not improve functional outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke, results ...
Without requiring an operator, the performance of the ultrasound sensor patch matches those of conventional methods. (Courtesy: Chonghe Wang et al Nature Biomed. Eng. 2 687) By measuring the pulsatile ...
The LM96551 is an eight-channel monolithic high-voltage, high-speed pulse generator for multi-channel medical ultrasound applications. It is well-suited for use with National’s LM965XX series chipset ...
