FUJIFILM VisualSonics is proud to support one more year the ESUCI which takes places in Rotterdam.  Topics of this symposium include, but are not restricted to: Microbubble formulations Microbubble production techniques Nanobubbles, nanodroplets, …

Ketogenic diets (KDs) are actively being evalu‑ ated for their potential anticancer effects. Although KDs are generally considered safe, their safety profile when combined with chemotherapy remains unknown. It is known that a KD enhances the anticancer …

Detection and differentiation of brown fat in humans poses several challenges, as this tissue is sparse and often mixed with white adipose tissue. Non-invasive detection of beige fat represents an even greater challenge as this tissue is structurally and …

Inflammation in the central nervous system can impair the function of neuronal mitochondria and contributes to axon degeneration in the common neuroinflammatory disease multiple sclerosis (MS). Here we combine cell-type-specific mitochondrial proteomics …

Rupture of the cap of an atherosclerotic plaque can lead to thrombotic cardiovascular events. It has been suggested, through computational models, that the presence of microcalcifications in the atherosclerotic cap can increase the risk of cap rupture. …

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common heart muscle disorder that frequently leads to heart failure, arrhythmias, and death. While DCM is often heritable, disease-causing mutations are identified in only ~30% of cases. In a forward genetic mutagenesis …

Objectives: Prior study has demonstrated the implementation of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) for determining the therapy response in breast tumour patients. Several QUS parameters quantified from the tumour region showed a significant correlation with the …

Objective: Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) is commonly used to guide transbronchial needle biopsies for the staging of lymph nodes in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Although contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and microbubbles (MBs) can improve the …

In newborns, developmental disorders such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and specific types of congenital heart disease (CHD) can lead to defective alveolarization, pulmonary hypoplasia, and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Therapeutic …
