The gut plays an important role in energy homeostasis, and gut function is under intensive neuroendocrine control. The non-invasive imaging techniques contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging and super resolution ultrasound (SRUS) have the potential visualise the gut and provide novel insight into its structure and function. We aimed to demonstrate that changes in duodenal villi structure can be monitored using CEUS and SRUS, providing an insight into the structural of the ...
