“…Due to these improvements in US imaging, the modality is now ripe to be exploited in a plethora of clinical applications. Efforts are underway to use the US technology in prostate imaging [160], neonatal imaging [161], skin and ocular imaging [162] and a wide range of intraluminal imaging applications [163]. The extensive applicability of US in the clinical domain may be seen from its qualitative and prognostic assessment of cardiovascular disease [164], developmental biology [165], musculoskeletal disease [166], arteriosclerosis [164] and a wide variety of other manifestations of human disease.…”

Physics has delivered extraordinary developments in almost every facet of modern life. From the humble thermometer and stethoscope to X‐Ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, PET and radiotherapy, our health has been transformed by these advances yielding both morphological and functional metrics. Recently high resolution label‐free imaging of the microcirculation at clinically relevant depths has become available in the research domain. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review on current imaging techniques, state‐of‐the‐art advancements and applications, and general perspectives on the prospects for these modalities in the clinical realm.

“…It is superior to angiography in assessing the extent of atherosclerosis as validated by several histologic studies. [17][18][19][20] There is excellent correlation between intravascular ultrasound measurements and histologic cross sections, whereas the correlation between angiographic and histologic measurements is variable. The correlation of angiographic and intravascular ultrasound nieasurements has thus been inconsistent.…”

SummaryBackgrouizd and hypothesis: Serial coronary angiography cannot reliably detect the small changes in arterial dimensions. Measurement of arterial dimensions by intracoronary ultrasound (ICUS) may be a superior method to determine the extent of atherosclerotic burden since it directly images the diseased portion of the vessel.Merhods: To quantify inter-and intraobserver variability of ICUS measurements, 27 images of atherosclerotic coronary lesions were measured by two study physicians and repeated 14 days later.Results: Interobserver correlation coefficients for external elastic lamina, lumen, and effective plaque area were 0.96, 0.99, and 0.9 1, respectively. Intraobserver correlation coefficients for external elastic lamina, lumen, and effective plaque area were 0.99,0.99, and 0.97, respectively. To determine progression or regression in effective plaque area, a minimal difference of 2.77 mm2 (which represents a 23% change in plaque area) is needed.Conclusions: Direct visualization of the extent of atherosclerosis by ICUS can be accomplished with a low degree of inter-and intraobserver variability. ICUS may be a preferable alternative to angiography in atherosclerosis regression trials.
