Evaluation of high resolution ultrasound as a tool for assessing the 3D volume of blood clots during in vitro thrombolysis

Abstract Thrombosis is a major cause of several diseases, i.e. myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke and pulmonary embolism. Thrombolytic therapies are required to induce fast and efficient recanalization of occluded vessels. To evaluate the in vitro efficacy of these thrombolytic strategies, measu...
