Endoleak Detection after Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair Using Ultrasound Based on Nanoscale Bubble Contrast Agents and Their Effects on Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation and Migration
Abstract:Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is the most common vascular disease that causes disability and death. Its morbidity is relatively subtle, and the mortality rate is high. Clinically, endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) has gradually become the primary treatment of AAA due to its unique advantages such as low trauma and low incidence of short-term complications. However, the outcome of EVAR is greatly compromised by the possible occurrence of endoleaks. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a promising a… Show more
