Objectives. This study was designed to describe the clinical effects of ultrasound energy on guide-wire-induced arterial vasoconstriction.Background. We have previously shown that ultrasound energy (20 kHz) delivered by a wire probe produces dose-dependent, endothelium-independent smooth muscle relaxation capable of reversing both receptor-mediated and voltage-dependent vasoconstriction in vitro.Methods. A high intensity, low frequency ultrasound catheter system was used to recanalize total occlusions in the superficial femoral arteries of two patients. After recanalization, the proximal residual stenoses were each
