In translation from preclinical to clinical studies using photoacoustic imaging, motion artifacts
represent a major issue. In this study the feasibility of an in-house algorithm, referred to as …

Longitudinal motion of the carotid arterial wall, as measured with ultrasound, has shown
promise as an indicator of vascular health. The underlying mechanisms are however not …

Background During the cardiac cycle, there is a multi‐phasic bidirectional longitudinal
movement (LMov) of the intima‐media complex of large arteries, ie along the arteries. On the …

The longitudinal motion of the arterial wall, that is, the displacement of the arterial wall along
the artery, parallel to blood flow, is still largely unexplored. The magnitude and nature of …

The longitudinal movement of the arterial wall of large human arteries has shown promise to
be an independent indicator of vascular health. Despite growing interest in this movement …

Magnetomotive ultrasound, MMUS, can reveal the presence of a magnetic contrast agent by
applying an external magnetic field. If the interaction between the agent and the field is …

Quantification of the dynamics of the carotid artery wall is useful in evaluating
arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis. As the carotid artery wall moves not only in the radial …

Increasing interest and research is directed towards longitudinal arterial wall motion (LMov)
identified by ultrasonography, most often of the common carotid artery (CCA). LMov …

High frame rate ultrasound imaging is necessary to enable tracking of rapid dynamic events
such as the carotid pulse wave velocity. Several studies have shown that it is feasible to use …

The leading cause of death in the world is cardiovascular diseases. Scientific discoveries
have been made that correlate the movement of the arterial walls and blood flow patterns …
