Sonothrombolysis by cavitation of microbubbles (MB).19 Data demonstrating recanalisation rate in a porcine model of acute left anterior descending artery (LAD) thrombotic occlusion using half-dose thrombolytic therapy alone (control) or with cardiac ultrasound exposure of non-targeted or platelet targeted microbubbles. Images illustrate angiographic LAD (arrow) recanalisation 30 min after contrast ultrasound exposure of targeted microbubbles.
