Article Abstract
Super-resolution ultrasound (SRUS) imaging through localizing and tracking microbubbles (MBs), also known as ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM), has achieved unprecedented resolution in deep tissue in vivo. In this review, we will focus on the key technical steps of ULM, including data acquisition and tissue clutter removal, motion correction, localization, tracking, and final image visualization, as well as offering the authors' perspectives of the techniques. In each of the technical steps, we review what has been done and the state of the art and describe the key factors and parameters that influence each step, existing issues, and considerations when choosing the parameters. Finally, methods for evaluation of ULM image quality with or without ground truth are also reviewed.

Transcranial ultrasound localization microscopy (t-ULM) is faced with challenges posed by the skull, including acoustic attenuation and phase aberrations. There is a significant request for an efficient aberration correction method achieving a great balance between computational complexity and accuracy. In this study, the ray theory is first applied to in-vivo transcranial imaging to calculate the traveltime table in the inhomogeneous medium model of the imaging region.

Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), caused by Hantaan virus, poses a serious public health threat. Current diagnostic methods remain limited by low sensitivity, complex procedures, and high sample requirements. To address this, we developed a highly sensitive single-molecule biosensor using multi-fluorophore nucleic acid probes and STORM imaging for the detection of Hantaan virus RNA.

Background: Super-resolution (SR) reconstruction-based positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has been widely applied in the field of computer vision. However, their definitive clinical benefits have yet to be validated. Radiomics-based modeling provides an effective approach to evaluate the clinical utility of SRPET imaging.

Oncologic emergencies in critically ill cancer patients frequently require rapid, real-time assessment of tumor responses to therapeutic interventions. However, conventional imaging modalities such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are often impractical in intensive care units (ICUs) due to logistical constraints and patient instability. Super-resolution ultrasound (SR-US) imaging has emerged as a promising noninvasive alternative, facilitating bedside evaluation of tumor microvascular dynamics with exceptional spatial resolution.

Background: Lung cancer remains one of the malignant tumors with the highest global morbidity and mortality rates. Detecting pulmonary nodules in computed tomography (CT) images is essential for early lung cancer screening. However, traditional detection methods often suffer from low accuracy and efficiency, limiting their clinical effectiveness.
