Extracorporeal ultrasound angioplasty - effect of pulse repetition frequency of high-intensity focused ultrasound on thrombolysis

The vascular occlusion by the thrombi is the main reason for ischemic stroke and deep vein thrombosis. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and histotripsy or microtripsy pulses can effectively dissolve the blood clot with no use of thrombolytic agent and ultrasound contrast agent (microbubble)....
