Skoltech researchers and their colleagues have synthesized and tested protein-polymer microbubbles for use in medical ultrasound imaging of internal organs. Administered intravenously, the ...

Ultrasound contrast agents come in the form of microbubbles ... The remaining formulations were tested on a blood vessel phantom to determine bubble size, concentration, and acoustic response.

13 Two gas-filled microsphere ultrasound contrast agents are currently approved ... The use of acoustic radiation force to 'move' bubbles towards the target could enhance microbubble adhesion.

Ultrasound-guided microbubbles can enhance the immune response against tumors by increasing T cell permeability, allowing them to secrete cytokines despite the tumor's suppressive environment.

A new paper by a team of Concordia researchers from the departments of Biology and Physics proposes a novel method of fighting cancer tumors that uses ultrasound-guided microbubbles - a technology ...

A new paper by a team of Concordia researchers from the departments of Biology and Physics proposes a novel method of fighting cancer tumours that uses ultrasound-guided microbubbles — a ...

Our first research interest is in studying the basic physics of ultrasound-stimulated microbubble vibrations, and other acoustically sensitive agents. A more complete understanding of the dynamic ...

The researchers targeted freshly isolated human immune cells with tightly focused ultrasound beams and clinically approved contrast agent microbubbles. When hit with the ultrasound, the bubbles ...
