Malignant glioma is one of the most challenging central nervous system (CNS) diseases,
which is typically associated with high rates of recurrence and mortality. Current surgical …

Ultrasonography has, until recently, lacked effective contrast‐enhancing agents. Micrometer‐
sized gas bubbles that resonate at a diagnostic frequency are ideal reflectors for ultrasound …

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant adult brain cancer with no curative
treatment strategy. A significant hurdle in GBM treatment is effective therapeutic delivery to …

This work investigates the effect of ultrasound exposure parameters on the sonoporation of
KHT-C cells in suspension by perflutren microbubbles. Variations in insonating acoustic …
