🧵5/7 High-frequency ULM enabled us to observe intricate details of the cerebral microvasculature. In one instance, we were able to trace an MB traveling through a descending artery, making a U-turn in a capillary vessel, and moving back up through an ascending vein.

Super cool deep dive of brain imaging!
A deep dive into brain imaging, illustrated by the amazing artist @Vaskange, with whom we share the same passion for infinite zoom and tiny details! Thank you @Vaskange for this pleasant collaboration and for depicting our research in such a great artwork.

We were asked by @acousticsorg to write an article to explain how super-resolution ultrasound works for a general audience, and it turned out to be quite a challenging (and FUN!) task! If you wonder what Fig. 2👇is about you can check out our paper here: acousticstoday.org/super-res…

@yirangs2 and @MRLowerison really did the heavy lifting for writing the article and I'm incredibly proud of their persistence and effort to make this article as friendly as possible to a general audience.

I should also mention that 15 versions were involved in the writing process, including a total re-write. We hope the paper turns out to be OK and reader-friendly for a general audience.

It’s been an absolute honor and pleasure to co-teach the @IEEE_UFFC_Soc IUS “Super-Resolution Imaging” short course with Olivier Couture over the past two years. Excited to continue the course with @JeanProvost at IUS 2025 in Utrecht! – at Taipei City, Taiwan

🧵6/7 FRC analysis showed that high-frequency ULM (when combined with the new @verasonics NXT system that provides 125 MHz sampling frequency) achieved a spatial resolution of ~7.1 microns in mouse brain when using 2-sigma threshold.

🧵4/7 At high MB concentrations, lower-frequency probes (L22 and L35) struggled with MB localization, leading to incomplete ULM images with many missing vessels. In contrast, the high-frequency probe (MS550S) produced a very high-quality ULM image with clear vessel delineation.
