Time-of-flight resolved light field fluctuations reveal deep human tissue physiology. [PDF]
Red blood cells (RBCs) transport oxygen to tissues and remove carbon dioxide. Diffuse optical flowmetry (DOF) assesses deep tissue RBC dynamics by measuring coherent fluctuations of multiply scattered near-infrared light intensity.

Soluble ST2 levels and left ventricular structure and function in patients with metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Background: A biomarker that is of great interest in relation to adverse cardiovascular events is soluble ST2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin family.

Quantification of Renal Stone Contrast with Ultrasound in Human Subjects [PDF]
Purpose: Greater visual contrast between calculi and tissue would improve ultrasound (US) imaging of urolithiasis and potentially expand clinical use. The color Doppler twinkling artifact has been suggested to provide enhanced contrast of stones compared

Monitoring kidney optical properties during cold storage preservation with spatial frequency domain imaging. [PDF]
Transplantation of kidneys results in delayed graft function in as many as 40% of cases. During the organ transplantation process, donor kidneys undergo a period of cold ischemic time (CIT), where the organ is preserved with a cold storage solution to ...

One year in review: ultrasound in arthritis [PDF]
Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) has become a relevant part of rheumatology practice and research because it substantially allows us to optimize management of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases. This non-invasive imaging modality is a valuable point-

Background: Cardiac involvement in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is often clinically occult. The aim of this study was the evaluation of early subclinical right ventricular (RV) involvement in patients with limited form of systemic sclerosis by tissue Doppler.

Assessment of Regional Myocardial Displacement via Spectral Tissue Doppler Compared with Color Tissue Tracking [PDF]
Background: The recent developments in tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) now more than ever permit the quantification of the myocardial function. In the current systems, tissue tracking or displacement curves are generated from color tissue Doppler data ...

ASSESSMENT OF LEFT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION USING TISSUE DOPPLER IMAGING
Background. Objective evidence of cardiac dysfunction is one of the diagnostic criteria for heart failure. It is often hard to assess systolic function and assessing diastolic dysfunction is even harder because there are no generally accepted ...

Effect of arrhythmias on tissue Doppler velocities
Sa wave of tissue Doppler imaging correlates with ventricular systole (QRS-T of electrocardiogram). Ea wave correlates with ventricular filling in early diastole. Aa wave correlates with ventricular filling during atrial contraction and correlates with P
