Episode 3: Vevo for Advanced Cardiology Imaging

Rapid, repeatable and well-established, ultra-high frequency ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging have an incredible impact to assess heart conditions.

Topics to be Discussed

  • How to assess chamber size and function non-invasively and in real-time.
  • Contrast-Enhanced 4D imaging of the heart for MRI-like images
  • Upcoming advanced data analysis options
  • Diastolic function - the importance of going beyond EF
  • Methods for assessing infarct size
  • Evaluation of HFpEF models
  • Assessing myocardial ischemia
  • Impact of myocardial infarction on the body
  • Cardiac disease impacting brain, liver, and kidney

Episode 4: Vevo for Brain and Neuroimaging

Rapid and easy to use, ultra-high frequency ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging can circumvent neuroimaging limitations by offering a non-invasive real-time high resolution technique which is capable of assessing many neurologically relevant parameters in 2D and 3D.

Topics to be Discussed

  • Anatomical information from B-Mode ultrasound imaging through an intact skull.
  • Contrast-Enhanced imaging of the brain for highly detailed microvascularization
  • Ultrasound-guided intracranial injections
  • Cerebral hemodynamics
  • Methods for assessing stroke and ischemic area
  • Cerebral intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH)
  • Assessing brain oxygenation and ischemia
  • Use of Angiostamp™800, a photoacoustic organic NIR imaging agent targeting the αvβ3 integrin for tumor detection
  • Real-time, image-guided stem cell information
