A new method for imaging microvascular blood flow which will allow for better diagnosis of vascular diseases such as diabetic foot ulcers has been developed by researchers from the department of biomedical engineering at Linkoping University, Sweden, in cooperation with Perimed AB.
Researchers working as part of the Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers Alliance (QIBA) have recently validated an open-source algorithm that can be used to measure blood flow using existing 3D ultrasound technology from major manufacturers. They published their results in the June 30, 2020, issue of Radiology.
