High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for dissolution of clots in a rabbit model of embolic stroke.
It is estimated that only 2-6% of patients receive thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke suggesting that alternative therapies are necessary. In this study, we investigate the potential for high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to initiate thrombolysis in an embolic model of stroke. Iron...
