The Acoustic Pulse Difference

Acoustic Pulse Thrombolysis is a minimally invasive system for dissolving thrombus. The ultrasonic core generates an acoustic field which greatly accelerates lytic dispersion by driving the drug deeper into the clot and unwinding the fibrin to expose plasminogen receptor sites.

EKOS' targeted ultrasound waves accelerate thrombus dissolution by unwinding the fibrin matrix.1

Fibrin before treatment
The Thrombus Barrier
Tightly wound fibrin prevents lyticfrom reaching receptor sites.
Fibrin with Acoustic Pulse
With Acoustic Pulse
Ultrasonic energy thins fibrinand exposes receptor sites.
Fibrin with Acoustic Pulse + Lytic
With Acoustic Pulse + Lytic
More drug reaches entire thrombus,accelerating absorption.
