within cells with acoustic energy. The cell-killing mechanism of these treatments has not
been clearly determined. To identify the site and degree of damage to tumour cells by …

Chinese hamster ovary cells (HA1) were exposed to therapeutic ultrasound (F= 2.025 MHz)
in the presence of various drugs at temperatures of 37–43° C. The space averaged …

Sonoporation, in the presence of ultrasound contrast agents (UCA), is a technique that
permits the transfer of drugs, including genes, into cells. In this study, the size of the pores …

Ultrasound-mediated drug delivery is a nonchemical, nonviral, and noninvasive method for
targeted transport of drugs and genes into cells. Molecules can be delivered into cells when …

Ultrasound has been shown to reversibly and irreversibly disrupt membranes of viable cells
through a mechanism believed to involve cavitation. Because cavitation is both temporally …

The effect of ultrasonic irradiation on the viability of human normal (foreskin fibroblast and
amniotic fluid epithelial) and tumor (breast carcinoma, melanoma, and lung carcinoma) cells …

Sonodynamic therapy, the ultrasound dependent enhancement of cytotoxic activities of
certain compounds (sonosensitizers) in studies with cells in vitro and in tumor bearing …

The synthesis of protein by human embryonic fibroblasts in vitro was stimulated by
irradiation with ultrasound at a frequency of 3 MHz, a spatial and temporal peak intensity of …

We have performed in vitro and in vivo tests to determine whether ultrasound (US) at levels
lower than previously investigated by others could still potentiate chemotherapeutic cell …

The enhancement of ultrasound-induced cell destruction, lysis, and sonoporation in low cell
concentration suspensions (2× 10 5/mL) by the presence of contrast agents (gas bubble to …
