A joint research team led by Professors Jaesok Yu, Hoejoon Kim, and Sanghoon Lee of the Department of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) has developed an ultrasound imaging technology capable of clearly visualizing blood vessels deep inside the human body in three dimensions without having to use contrast agents.

This technology is expected to significantly improve the safety and accessibility of medical imaging by enabling precise 3D blood flow images without radiation exposure or contrast agent injections.

The findings are published in the journal Ultrasonics.

Standard ultrasound exams mostly produce two-dimensional cross-sectional images, which makes it hard to see the full structure of organs or blood vessels. To visualize blood vessels...
