- Accuracy of intracranial pressure assessment with a non-invasive transcranial doppler and arterial blood pressure method in patients with suspected idiopathic intracranial hypertensionby Nabil Al Shammas, Sophie Schumann, Dragana Köhler and Bernhard Rosengarten on June 27, 2025 at 12:00 am
The incidence of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) has nearly doubled in the recent decade, possibly due to increasing obesity rates. Lumbar puncture pressure (LPP) assessment is still the diagnostic ...
- Efficacy of a theoretical-practical course for the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve diameter in different healthcare operatorsby Eugenio Garofalo, Giuseppe Neri, Vincenzo Bosco, Caroleo Zaninni, Fabiola Virdò, Helenia Mastrangelo, Giusy Guzzi, Gianmaria Cammarota, Chiara Robba, Federico Longhini and Andrea Bruni on June 16, 2025 at 12:00 am
The measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) via ultrasound is a non-invasive technique to estimate intracranial pressure. Brief training has been shown to be effective in accurately teaching the ...
- Progresses and clinical application of super-resolution ultrasound imaging: a narrative reviewby Jia-yi Gao and Chao Hou on June 16, 2025 at 12:00 am
Microcirculation plays a crucial role in maintaining normal physiological functions in the human body by facilitating the exchange of materials between tissues and blood through a network of microvessels with ...
- Ultrasound-based statistical shape modeling for prognosis in unstable hip dysplasiaby E. M. van Bussel, L. van Marle, J. M. Bonsel, D. de Vrij, H. Weinans and R. Sakkers on May 30, 2025 at 12:00 am
Current methods to classify developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) on ultrasound (US) images, such as the Graf method, provide limited prognostic information. This study aimed to improve the prediction of th...
