Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Hemodynamics

Background:

  • Previous imaging systems had limited resolution for microcirculation assessment.
  • Accurate measurement of microcirculation blood flow is crucial for understanding various physiological and pathological conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a fast and robust algorithm for evaluating volumetric microcirculation blood flow using a high-frequency contrast-assisted imaging system.
  • To introduce and validate two novel methods for assessing perfusion area and blood flow velocity.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a high-frequency contrast-assisted destruction/reperfusion imaging system.
  • Proposed two new methods: correlation-based approach (CBA) and sum-absolute-difference approach (SADA) to determine perfusion area.

  • Estimated blood flow velocity from B-mode time-intensity curves (TICs).
  • Conducted in vitro experiments to validate the proposed methods.

    • Main Results:

    • The developed algorithm accurately estimates volumetric microcirculation blood flow.
    • Demonstrated a good correlation between actual and estimated flow rates in in vitro experiments.
    • CBA and SADA effectively located and assessed perfusion areas.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed algorithm provides a fast and robust method for volumetric microcirculation blood flow estimation.
    • This technique holds significant potential for high-resolution flow assessment in preclinical models (e.g., tumors, glaucoma) and clinical superficial vasculature evaluation.
