Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 850 million people worldwide and is associated with
significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Routine laboratory tests do not reflect …

To combat the irreversible decline in renal function associated with kidney disease, it is
essential to establish non‐invasive biomarkers for assessing renal microcirculation …

The morphological and hemodynamic changes of microvessels are demonstrated to be
related to the diseased conditions in tissues. Ultrafast power Doppler imaging (uPDI) is a …

The change of microvasculature is associated with the occurrence and development of
many diseases. Ultrafast power Doppler imaging (uPDI) is an emerging technology for the …

Oxidative stress and sustained sympathetic over-activity contribute to the pathogenesis of
hypertension. Catheter-based renal denervation has been used as a strategy for treatment …

Objective The purpose of this study is to detect the hemodynamic changes of microvessels
in the early stage of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and to test the feasibility of ultrasound …

Objective: Super-resolution ultrasound (SRUS) imaging through localizing and tracking
microbubbles, also known as ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM), can produce sub …

Objective After spinal cord injury (SCI) or ischemia, timely intervention in the penumbra,
such as recanalization and tissue reperfusion, is essential for preservation of its function …

Obesity is a risk factor of chronic kidney disease (CKD), leading to alterations in the renal
vascular structure. This study tested if renal vascular density and tortuosity was quantifiable …
