Endothelial dysfunction (ED), a marker for cardiovascular disease, can now be screened non-invasively. New ultrasound techniques offer a promising method for assessing ED in patients and healthy individuals.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular biology and cardiovascular medicine.
  • Cellular and molecular mechanisms of vascular homeostasis.
  • Diagnostic imaging and interventional cardiology.

Context:

  • The endothelium is vital for maintaining vascular health by regulating vascular tone and blood-arterial wall interactions.
  • Endothelial dysfunction (ED) impairs physiological responses, contributing to atheroma formation and cardiovascular events.
  • Invasive assessment of ED during coronary angiography is a recognized prognostic marker.

Purpose:

  • To review current knowledge on non-invasive methods for assessing endothelial dysfunction.
  • To highlight a novel non-invasive ultrasound technique for screening ED.
  • To discuss the potential clinical applications of this ultrasound technology.

Summary:

  • Endothelial cells are key regulators of vascular homeostasis.

  • Endothelial dysfunction is linked to atheroma formation and adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
  • A new non-invasive ultrasound technique shows promise for screening ED in diverse populations.

    • Impact:

    • Facilitates early detection of endothelial dysfunction, a precursor to cardiovascular disease.
    • Offers a non-invasive alternative to invasive angiography for ED assessment.
    • Potential to improve cardiovascular risk stratification and patient management through widespread screening.
