Objectives–Ultrasound of the brain supplying arteries is a standard diagnostic procedure in
patients with suspected and definite acute and chronic cerebrovascular occlusive disease …

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency and accuracy of contrast-enhanced
transcranial color-coded sonography (CE-TCCS). Background: TCCS is hampered by …

Harmonic imaging increases the signal‐to‐noise ratio in greyscale imaging. With the use of
ultrasound contrast agents (UCA), imaging of brain perfusion seems possible. The authors …

Background and Purpose—Experimental and clinical data suggest that insonation of echo-
contrast agents with high acoustical power produces disintegration of microbubbles …

To investigate new methods of diagnostic transcranial sonography for brain parenchymal,
vascular and perfusion imaging, we performed 3-D native tissue harmonic transcranial …

Background and Purpose—Second harmonic imaging (SHI) is a novel ultrasound technique
that allows the evaluation of brain tissue perfusion. The purpose of this study was to assess …

Background and Purpose—To clarify optimal brain tissue perfusion images visualized by
transcranial ultrasound harmonic imaging, we compared gray-scale integrated backscatter …

Sonography is recognized as the best screening tool for detecting carotid artery stenosis.
Nevertheless, cervical ultrasound examination is subject to practical limitations in some rare …

Ultrasound contrast agents change the acoustic properties of brain tissue. This can be
quantified with acoustic densitometry. In a dog model, the authors examined changes in …

Die systemische Thrombolysetherapie beim akuten Schlaganfall führt zu einer signifikanten
Verbesserung des klinischen Outcomes. Dabei werden das starre Zeitfenster und die fest …
