Journal ArticleDOI

Arterial wall characteristics determined by intravascular ultrasound imaging: An in vitro study☆

TL;DR: This study indicates that characterization of the type of artery and detection of arterial wall disease are possible with use of an intravascular ultrasound imaging technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absorption and scatter of encapsulated gas filled microspheres: Theoretical considerations and some measurements

TL;DR: A theoretical model is developed for some acoustic properties, particularly the scatter and absorption, of this contrast agent, considering the individual microspheres as air bubbles surrounded by a thin shell, and it is concluded that the model correlates well with these acoustic measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Plaque Components With Intravascular Ultrasound Elastography in Human Femoral and Coronary Arteries In Vitro

TL;DR: Different strain values are found between fibrous, fibro-fatty, and fatty plaque components, indicating the potential of intravascular elastography to distinguish different plaque morphologies.
Journal ArticleDOI

B-Mode Ultrasound Assessment of Pravastatin Treatment Effect on Carotid and Femoral Artery Walls and Its Correlations With Coronary Arteriographic Findings: A Report of the Regression Growth Evaluation Statin Study (REGRESS)

TL;DR: B-mode ultrasound imaging studies of peripheral arterial walls could not describe the state and evolution of the coronary lumen in the individual patient, but proved to be a highly suitable tool for the assessment of antiatherosclerotic properties of agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Principles and recent developments in ultrasound contrast agents.

TL;DR: The behaviour of gas bubbles and gas encapsulated spheres as echographic contrast agents is reviewed and the analysis of their velocity of sound, back-scatter intensity, second harmonic emission and resonant frequency opens up new perspectives in the development of contrast agents for echocardiographic research with potential clinical applications.
