Researchers have developed a bubble microrobot capable of being guided around the tiny complex blood vessels of the brain using ultrasound. Successfully tested in mice, the ‘microvehicle’ holds ...

Focused ultrasound combined with microbubbles is increasingly being used to safely and reversibly open the blood-brain barrier (BBB) for the treatment of brain tumors and neurodegenerative disorders.

Two new clinical trials show that microbubble ultrasound contrast agents safely and effectively improve liver tumor responses to radiotherapy and patient survival, according to results announced today ...

Researchers at UT Southwestern have developed a first-of-its-kind ultrasound-guided cancer immunotherapy platform that delivers immune-stimulating agents to cells for the development of systemic ...

Researchers from Skoltech, ITMO University, and their colleagues have reported new findings about the behavior of microbubbles exposed to ultrasound. The data obtained by the team will enable the ...

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. The most common malignancies of head and neck cancer arise in the mucosal epithelium in the oral cavity, ...

Screening for prostate cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Background: A novel ultrasound method employing microbubble (MB) contrast offers portable, noninvasive dynamic assessment of tumor ...

Injecting drugs into the bloodstream can often harm healthy tissues as well. Drug delivery systems (DDSs) are an innovative solution designed to target specific cells and minimize such side effects.
