Focused ultrasound and microbubble (FUS + MB)-mediated blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability enhancement can facilitate targeted brain-drug delivery. While controlling the magnitude of BBB ...

A clinical study shows that preoperative dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help predict how microbubbles will distribute in the human brain. This is ...

A watched pot never boils, goes the old saying, but many of us have at least kept an eye on the pot, waiting for the bubbling to start. It's satisfying to finally see the rolling boil, behind which ...

Cancer researchers are a step closer to finding a cure for advanced prostate cancer after effectively combining an anti-cancer drug with a viral gene therapy in vivo using novel ultrasound-targeted ...

X-rays are commonly used as a means to image the inside of objects opaque to visible light, as their short wavelength allows penetration through matter and the formation of high spatial resolution ...

The USphere Series of microbubble contrast agents has been carefully designed for preclinical imaging, operating efficiently at frequencies ranging from 1 to 40 MHz. Their small size distribution (1.1 ...

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 ...

Using "microbubbles" and ultrasound can mean more targeted breast biopsies for patients with early breast cancer, helping to determine treatment and possibly saving those patients from undergoing a ...

Cleaning and sanitizing food processing equipment requires using chemicals and copious amounts of water for rinsing those chemicals away. It's possible—if it can be done correctly—that creating ...

A new technology now under development by researchers at the University of Nebraska and the University of Colorado Boulder could result in the creation of a so-called “third lung” for severely injured ...

Akadeum’s Life Sciences isolation kit uses microbubbles to reduce leukopak production time. Akadeum Life Sciences’ Microbubble Leukopak Human T-Cell Isolation kit is a research-use-only kit developed ...
