Working with industrial partners, Yehs team has developed a 0.2-mm ultrasonic device, which can generate tornado-like ultrasonic vortex and create a strong turbulent around the thrombus, therefore increasing penetration of thrombolytic drugs and resulting in very effective thrombolysis.

Key Points: 
  • Working with industrial partners, Yehs team has developed a 0.2-mm ultrasonic device, which can generate tornado-like ultrasonic vortex and create a strong turbulent around the thrombus, therefore increasing penetration of thrombolytic drugs and resulting in very effective thrombolysis.
  • Yeh said that animal studies have shown results of 60% thrombus shrinkage in the mice brain after applying ultrasonic vortex for ten minutes, demonstrating the potential of fast treatment.
  • Yeh added that his team is also working on using ultrasonic vortex for noninvasive thrombolysis, which provides potential to treat embolisms in the brain.
  • Reflecting on how he first got interested in ultrasonic vortex, Yeh recalled that it was a family trip to a marine science museum ten years ago.
