However, the therapeutic efficiency of HIFU is relatively unsatisfactory for large and/or deep lesions, due to the exponentially attenuated US energy with increased depth and the reduced energy for the areas adjacent to high-speed blood flow5,6. Therefore, increased output power and extended ...
4,5]. The examination is easiest to perform with the patient on a pelvic examination table with her feet in stirrups. A speculum is used to visualize and cleanse the cervix with antiseptic solution. A 5-F pediatric feeding tube or a balloon SHG catheter, pre-filled with sterile ...

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were used to treat stress fracture. Bilateral stress fractures were induced in the ulnas of 48 adult rats. Animals were divided into two groups (NSAID and VEH), and treated 5 days per week with celecoxib...
Doppler measurements (Accuson Aspen) were performed in the Umbilical artery, Middle cerebral artery, ductus venosus and Umbilical vein of both fetuses preoperatively and on days 1, 3 and 5 postlaser. Results: Venous pulsatility indices tend to decrease in the recipient while they increase in the...
