In response to this challenge, sonothrombolysis is being explored as a technique that combines microbubbles, ultrasound, and thrombolytic agents to facilitate the aggressive dissolution of thrombi. Prior studies have indicated that relatively large microbubbles accelerate the dissolution process, either in an in vitro or an arterial model. However, sonothrombolysis using large microbubbles must be evaluated in venous thromboembolism diseases, where blood flow velocity is not comparable. In this study, the efficacy of sonothrombolysis was validated in a murine model of pre-existing DVT. During therapy, microfluidically produced microbubbles of 18 μm diameter and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) were administered through a tail vein catheter for 30 min, while ultrasound was applied to the abdominal region of the mice. Three-dimensional ultrasound scans were performed before and after therapy for quantification. The residual volume of the thrombi was 20% in animals post sonothrombolysis versus 52% without therapy ( <math><mrow><mi>p</mi> <mo>=</mo> <mn>0.012</mn> <mo><</mo> <mn>0.05</mn></mrow> </math> ), indicating a significant reduction in DVT volume.

Despite the development of population-based scores to evaluate the risk of rupture, retrospective analyses have suggested the limited usage of these scores in guiding clinical decision-making. With recent advancements in imaging technologies, artery wall motion has emerged as a promising biomarker for the general study of neurovascular mechanics and in assessing the risk of intracranial aneurysms. However, measuring arterial wall deformations in vivo itself poses several challenges, including how to image local wall motion and deriving the anisotropic wall strains over the cardiac cycle. To overcome these difficulties, we first developed a novel in vivo MRI-based imaging method to acquire cardiac gated images of the human basilar artery (BA) over the cardiac cycle. Next, complete BA endoluminal surfaces from each frame were segmented, producing high-resolution point clouds of the endoluminal surfaces. From these point clouds we developed a novel B-spline-based surface representation, then exploited the local support nature of B-splines to determine the local endoluminal surface strains. Results indicated distinct regional and temporal variations in BA wall deformation, highlighting the heterogeneous nature BA function. These included large circumferential strains (up to <math><mo>∼</mo></math> 20 <math><mo>%</mo></math> ), and small longitudinal strains, which were often contractile and out of phase with the circumferential strains patterns. Of particular interest was the temporal phase lag in the maximum circumferential perimeter length, which indicated that the BA deforms asynchronously over the cardiac cycle. In summary, the proposed method enabled local deformation analysis, allowing for the successful reproduction of local features of the BA, such as regional principal stretches, areal changes, and pulsatile motion. Integrating the proposed method into existing population-based scores has the potential to improve our understanding of mechanical properties of human BA and enhance clinical decision-making.</p>","PeriodicalId":7986,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biomedical Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142139023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
