A study of blood clots using photoacoustic imaging during sonothrombolysis
Formation of blood clots or thrombus in healthy blood vessels can lead to serious or even life-threatening complications. Sonothrombolysis is a promising tool for lysing the blood clots non-invasively using focused acoustic waves. Ultrasound (US) imaging
