Figure Lengend Snippet: 3DULM for in vivo angiography at the early phase of stroke’s models. (a) Skin opening for ultrasound imaging. Ischemic model: a small hole was drilled above the MCA branch, and human thrombin was injected. Hemorrhagic model: the parietal bone was drilled, and collagenase was injected in the striatum. ( b) Timeline of the experiment for each model, with four acquisitions: in the half hour prior stroke onset (t−), in hyperacute stage (30 min and 1h30), and the day after with MRI imaging. T2* and T2 MRI sequences slices and 3D rendering. ( c) Ultrasound matrix probe with transducers pooled in four synthetic apertures successively connected to the echograph. ULM processing with filtering, localization and tracking. Rat brain atlas registered on ULM volume (600 µm width slab). 3D rendering with brain surface with Amira software (Thermo Fisher). Scale bars: 1 mm.

Figure Lengend Snippet: MDI for unsupervised observation reflects the vascularization density. (a) Anatomical regions are extracted from anatomical structures. The hidden areas are excluded from the study. MDI computation with a range of 100 µm on binarized vascularization. ( b) Selection of a round reference region of 1.2 mm diameter in the thalamus and a region of interest in the cortex for ischemic stroke (0.9 mm diameter) and in the striatum for hemorrhage. ( c) Example of a spherical ROI extracted from the ULM volume, binarization and MDI computation.
