Description:
The RFP is an invitation to submit offers for The Supply of a High-Frequency Functional Ultrasound, as further described herein.
Assessment of bleed risk using functional ultrasound. Impaired neurological development remains a stubbornly persistent complication of preterm birth. A major contributing factor is the fragility of the cerebral vasculature in the immature brain, making it vulnerable to brain bleeds caused by unstable blood flow. Working with clinical colleagues, as well as experts in ultrasound and neonatal brain imaging, our goal is to develop a robust functional ultrasound (fUS) protocol using the proposed fUS equipment for rapid assessment of blood flow patterns in deep brain ventricular structures where bleeds originate. We will also compare continuous cortical recordings from EEG and fNIRS to determine the relationship between the signals from the different brain regions in preterm neonates. We envision that this approach will enable us to identify cortical patterns that will predict the risk of a bleed developing, thereby enabling corrective...
