Journal ArticleDOI

Cooling System Permits Effective Transcutaneous Ultrasound Clot Lysis In Vivo Without Skin Damage.

TL;DR: Low-frequency, high-intensity ultrasound energy can be delivered transcutaneously for clot dissolution without concomitant tissue damage when coupled with the use of a cooling system to prevent thermal injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noninvasive transcutaneous ultrasound augments thrombolysis in the left circumflex coronary artery--an in vivo canine study.

TL;DR: Both transcutaneous low frequency continuous wave ultrasound and pulsed wave ultrasound enhance tissue-type plasminogen activator-mediated thrombolysis of the posterior circulation with higher TIMI 3 flow rates and less reocclusion than with tissue- type plasmineg activator alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Usefulness of a hand-carried cardiac ultrasound device for bedside examination of pericardial effusion in patients after cardiac surgery

TL;DR: No difference was found in the incidence of effusion based on the type of cardiac surgery, and patients with a small pericardial effusion on day 3 after surgery developed cardiac tamponade.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of echocardiography during mitral valve percutaneous interventions.

TL;DR: The use of echocardiography for transcatheter treatment of MS, MR, and paravalvular mitral leak is described.
