Meet Willy - Your Guide to the Circle of Willis and TCD Ultrasound! Willy, inspired by the Circle of Willis, embodies the critical role TCD ultrasound plays in modern stroke care. The Circle of Willis supplies up to 80% of the blood to the brain and is the most important source of collateral circulation. When an artery becomes blocked or damaged due to significant extracranial disease like stenosis, hemorrhage, or stroke, collateral circulation provides alternative routes for blood flow. TCD is the only non-invasive method for continuous, real-time monitoring of blood flowing through this important structure. TCD can detect emboli, the narrowing of blood vessels, vasospasm due to hemorrhage, and much more. Due to the unique and important information provided by TCD, it is a required technology for all comprehensive stroke centers. Learn more: www.neurasignal.com

This new study introduces IQ-FFR, a rapid intravascular ultrasound method for predicting FFR. The approach enables real-time evaluation of coronary lesions, demonstrating strong agreement with traditional wire-derived FFR. https://ow.ly/4X6m50TK4xZ

It does matter where you put the chest drain (CD) and you should control for the lung expansion with ultrasound. Visualisation of the CD is the 5th sign excluding pneumothorax (in addition to pleural sliding, pulse, B lines and lung point proving its presence). Furthermore, it can be predicted from the CD index (CDI = length of the CD in the chest measured on an antero-posterior X-ray divided by the depth of insertion read directly on a CD scale plus 5 cm). CDI close to 1 (right hemithorax of the patient on ECMO below) implies minimum foreshortening, visible CD under anterior chest wall and no pneumothorax. Reduced CDI (0.49, left hemithorax below) suggests CD directed backwards, absence of CD on CUS and a ventral pneumothorax. Moreover, you may spare critically ill patient a trip to CT scanner.....See more in J of Ultrasound 2022 and J of Thorac Dis 2018.

Optimizing Cardiac MRI Workflow with Beat Sensor Technology: How We Do It by Andreas Lingg, MRT; Patrick Krumm, M.D.; PD Dr. Saif Afat, M.D.; Thomas Küstner, Ph.D. (Universitätsklinikum Tübingen, Germany) Cardiovascular #MRI typically involves placing ECG electrodes, which can be both time-consuming and prone to errors. The BioMatrix Beat Sensor helps save significant time in patient preparation by eliminating the need for ECG attachment. This is a notable advantage for both the MR operator and the patient. For female patients, the sometimes unpleasant exposure of the chest is no longer necessary; for male patients, there is no need to shave the chest. Additionally, the problem of uncharged ECG signal transmitters that are not correctly attached to the charger is eliminated. The authors share their experiences with the BioMatrix Beat Sensor and provide tips for cases where ECG electrodes are still necessary. Their findings suggest that the BioMatrix Beat Sensor is a reliable non-invasive alternative to ECG, improving workflow efficiency and patient comfort.
