1 Solid and gaseous cerebral microembolization during off-pump, on-pump, and open cardiac surgery procedures  Yasir Abu-Omar, MRCS, Lognathen Balacumaraswami, FRCS, David W Pigott, FRCA, Paul M Matthews, MD, DPhil, FRCP, David P Taggart, MD, PhD, FRCS  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 127, Issue 6, Pages (June 2004) DOI: /j.jtcvs

2 Figure 1A HITS seen after aortic crossclamp removal. The top and bottom traces represent the 2.0 and 2.5 MHz middle cerebral artery gates, respectively. The middle trace represents the 2.0 MHz reference gate. Figure 1B Rejection of artifacts and differentiation into gaseous and solid microemboli during off-line analysis.
