Simple microbubble robots use enzymes to navigate tumors and deliver drugs
Microrobots have long promised precision drug delivery inside the human body, but making them ...
A clinical study shows that preoperative dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
The brain is a stronghold, the central command center for the body, protected by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This network of blood vessels and tissues acts as a biological gatekeeper, a selective ...
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.
The potential of microrobots is enormous. These miniature objects can be designed to carry out actions within the body, such ...
