Novel Heart Ultrasound Measures Can Predict Risk of Developing Dementia
In a study to assess if there is a link between heart health and dementia, researchers have been able to identify novel measures that are linked to a higher dementia risk by using echocardiography - visual ultrasound of the heart. More...25 Mar 2022

Ultrasound Can Effectively Predict Ovarian Cancer and Prevent Unnecessary Surgery
In a new study, researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center (Rochester, NY, USA) assessed a method that uses ultrasound images to classify adnexal lesions into one of two categories: classic or non-classic. The study's findings confirm that the appearance of ovarian lesions on ultrasound is an effective predictor of cancer risk that can help women avoid unnecessary surgery. More...24 Mar 2022

AI-Guided Handheld Surgical Robot Can Stem Fatal Blood Loss
A team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, Cambridge, MA, USA) and physicians at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH, Boston, MA, USA) have developed a handheld platform technology that has the potential to help personnel with simple training to quickly install a catheter into a common femoral vessel, enabling rapid treatment at the point of injury.

New Real 3D Vascular Ultrasound Imaging Technique Improves Cardiovascular Risk Assessment
A new imaging technique for real 3D vascular ultrasound could become a key tool in strategies aimed at preventing cardiovascular disease in apparently healthy persons, complementing traditional risk parameters such as cholesterol and high blood pressure. More...17 Mar 2022

Breakthrough Ultrasound Technology Offers Disruptive, Non-Invasive Treatment Option for Aortic Stenosis
Aortic stenosis is a degenerative and potentially life-threatening condition, caused by calcium build-up which prevents the aortic valve from fully opening, leading to heart failure. The only current medical response is to replace the aortic valve with open heart surgery, or with a minimally invasive percutaneous valve (TAVI). Now, a new non-invasive treatment combining therapeutic ultrasound, robotics and ultrasound imaging brings great hope for patients with aortic stenosis and for their families. More...17 Mar 2022
