Nonlinear sound-sheet microscopy.The ability to excite acoustic reporters one plane at a time enables molecular ultrasound imaging at the cellular and capillary scales. (i) In NSSM, the nonlinear ...

- low or high intensity ultrasound with no treatment or a sham therapy. Sham therapy used a device that looked like ultrasound or shockwave but was not real. - shockwave therapy with no treatment or ...

Ultrasound works by sending sound waves through the body. In addition to generating images, doctors can also perform ultrasound therapy to treat pain. Read more.

Aim This study aimed to (1) determine the intraobserver and interobserver reliability of ultrasonographic measurement of muscle thickness (MT) and cross-sectional area (CSA) of the rectus femoris and ...

If ultrasound’s evangelists are correct, it may soon replace the stethoscope as the quintessential doctor’s tool. Its rise, meanwhile, reveals something about how technology works.

However, collagen content has been correlated to ultrasonic backscatter, a low-cost, non-invasive index. Preliminary studies in our lab suggested collagen also dominates the anisotropy of backscatter ...

The velocity of ultrasound longitudinal waves (speed of sound) is emerging as a valuable biomarker for a wide range of diseases, including musculoskeletal disorders. Muscles are fiber-rich tissues ...

Degassed ultrasound gel was applied to the skin surface with a 20 mm gel pad (Aquaflex, Parker Laboratories, New Jersey, USA) placed between the animal and treatment table to facilitate acoustic ...
