Background: Results of our recently published phase III randomized clinical trial of
ultrasound-enhanced thrombolysis (sonothrombolysis) using an operator-independent, high …

Background: Currently, there are 2 strategies to increase the effect of systemic thrombolysis
with alteplase (rtPA) in acute major stroke: endovascular treatment via stent retrieval and …

Background and Purpose: Evidence about the utility of ultrasound-enhanced thrombolysis
(sonothrombolysis) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is conflicting. We aimed to …

Background Accumulating clinical evidence has indicated that sonothrombolysis can aid in
