Transcranial ultrafast ultrasound localization microscopy of brain vasculature in patients
March 15, 2021 — Nature Biomedical Engineering Abstract Changes in cerebral blood flow are associated with stroke, aneurysms, vascular cognitive impairment, neurodegenerative diseases and other pathologies. Brain angiograms, typically performed via computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, are limited to millimetre-scale resolution and are insensitive to blood-flow dynamics. Here we show that ultrafast ultrasound localization […]
