Nervous system diseases are a common category of diseases, including stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, brain tumors, and other types. These diseases often require high-precision imaging techniques for diagnosis and treatment. Medical ultrasound scanners have become an indispensable tool in the diagnosis of neurological diseases due to their non-invasive, high-resolution, and real-time imaging characteristics. This article will introduce the application and new progress of medical ultrasound scanners in the diagnosis of nervous system diseases.

1、 Application of medical ultrasound scanner in nervous system diseases

apoplexy

Stroke is a common nervous system disease with high incidence rate and serious prognosis. Medical ultrasound scanners can use neck Doppler ultrasound to determine the size, location, morphology, and other information of carotid plaque, thereby assessing the risk of stroke and guiding treatment options. In addition, ultrasound scanners can also be used to observe the effects of thrombolytic therapy in the late stages of stroke.

brain tumor

Brain tumors are common tumors of the nervous system that require high-precision imaging techniques for diagnosis. Medical ultrasound scanners can observe the condition of cerebral blood vessels through head Doppler ultrasound, including vasospasm, intracranial artery occlusion, etc., to help doctors determine the location, size, and shape of brain tumors.

cerebral hemorrhage

Cerebral hemorrhage is a serious neurological disease that also requires high-precision imaging techniques for diagnosis. Medical ultrasound scanners can use intracranial ultrasound to observe the location, size, morphology, and other characteristics of cerebral hemorrhage, and evaluate the severity of cerebral hemorrhage, thereby guiding treatment plans.

Neuropathy

Medical ultrasound scanners can also be used for the diagnosis and treatment of neuropathy. For example, in peripheral neuropathy, ultrasound scanners can observe neural structural and functional abnormalities in order to diagnose the type and extent of the lesion and guide treatment options. In neurointerventional surgery, ultrasound scanners can be used to guide surgical procedures and improve the accuracy and safety of surgery.

2、 New Advances in Medical Ultrasonic Scanners in Neurological Diseases

Ultrasound guided neurointerventional therapy

In recent years, with the continuous development of interventional therapy technology, ultrasound guided nerve interventional therapy technology has also undergone rapid development. For example, during embolization of cerebral aneurysms, ultrasound scanners can observe the condition of the blood vessel wall, including data such as the position, shape, and thickness of the intima of the blood vessel, thereby helping doctors guide surgical procedures and improving the accuracy and safety of the operation.
