Reply: Diagnostic Ultrasound Impulses Improve Microvascular Flow in Patients With STEMI Receiving Intravenous Microbubbles

In this trial, the authors have discovered that intermittent HMI ultrasound impulses with a standard diagnostic system (i.e., 33, Philips Healthcare, Bothel, Washington) during a lipid encapsulated microbubble infusion before granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) injection resulted in greater...

Description
Summary:In this trial, the authors have discovered that intermittent HMI ultrasound impulses with a standard diagnostic system (i.e., 33, Philips Healthcare, Bothel, Washington) during a lipid encapsulated microbubble infusion before granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) injection resulted in greater improvements in left ventricular ejection fraction following acute anterior myocardial infarction.
