Mapping blood microflows of the whole brain is crucial for early diagnosis of cerebral diseases. Ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) was recently applied to map and quantify blood microflows in 2D in the brain of adult patients down to…
Imaging the human brain vasculature with high spatial and temporal resolution remains challenging in the clinic today. Transcranial ultrasound is scarcely used for cerebrovascular imaging, due to low sensitivity and strong phase aberrations…
Ultrasound Localization Microscopy can resolve the microvascular bed down to a few micrometers. To achieve such performance microbubble contrast agents must perfuse the entire microvascular network. Microbubbles are then located…
Ultrasound localization microscopy has enabled super-resolution vascular imaging through precise localization of individual ultrasound contrast agents (microbubbles) across numerous imaging frames. However, analysis of high-density regions…
Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) can map microvessels at a resolution of a few micrometers (\mu m). Transcranial ULM remains challenging in presence of aberrations caused by the skull, which lead to localization errors. Herein, we…
Hemodynamic changes occur in stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Developing imaging techniques allowing the in vivo visualization and quantification of cerebral blood flow would help better understand the underlying mechanism of those…
Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) is a non-invasive technique that allows for the imaging of micro-vessels in vivo, at depth and with a resolution on the order of ten microns. ULM is based on the sub-resolution localization of…
Recently, super-resolution ultrasound imaging with ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) has received much attention. However, ULM relies on low concentrations of microbubbles in the blood vessels, ultimately resulting in long…
Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) has recently enabled the mapping of the cerebral vasculature in vivo with a resolution ten times smaller than the wavelength used, down to ten microns. However, with frame rates up to 20.000 frames…
Skull-induced aberrations remain a major drawback of transcranial ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM), degrading sensitivity and spatial accuracy through microbubble mislocalization, false detections, and imaging artifacts, such as…
Non-invasive detection of microvascular alterations in deep tissues in vivo provides critical information for clinical diagnosis and evaluation of a broad-spectrum of pathologies. Recently, the emergence of super-resolution ultrasound…
