Interest in using ultrasound energy in wound management and intracellular drug delivery
has been growing rapidly. Development and treatment optimization of such non-diagnostic …

Purpose. Ultrasound has been shown to transiently permeabilize biological membranes,
thereby facilitating delivery of large compounds such as proteins and DNA into cells and …

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 is commonly used in the preparation of unilamellar liposome dispersions and is
often considered for cell membrane disruption for drug delivery or DNA transfection …

Using conditions different from conventional medical imaging or laboratory cell lysis,
ultrasound has recently been shown to reversibly increase plasma membrane permeability …

Studies on the bioeffects produced by ultrasound and microbubbles have focused primarily
on transport in bulk tissue, drug uptake by individual cells, and disruption of biological …

Ultrasound (US) is used to enhance and target delivery of drugs and genes to cancer
tissues. The present study further examines the role of acoustic cavitation in US-induced …

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 …

Ultrasound has an ever-increasing role in the delivery of therapeutic agents, including
genetic material, protein and chemotherapeutic agents. Cavitating gas bodies, such as …

Ultrasound (US) induced cavitation can be used to enhance the intracellular delivery of
drugs by transiently increasing the cell membrane permeability. The duration of this …
