Nanomaterials incorporated ultrasound contrast agents for cancer theranostics
Nanotechnology provides various nanomaterials with tremendous functionalities for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. Recently, theranostics has been developed as an alternative strategy for efficient cancer treatment through combination of imaging diagnosis and therapeutic interventions under the guidance of diagnostic results. Ultrasound (US) imaging shows unique advantages with excellent fe...
متن کاملEchogenic Glycol Chitosan Nanoparticles for Ultrasound-Triggered Cancer Theranostics
Theranostic nanoparticles hold great promise for simultaneous diagnosis of diseases, targeted drug delivery with minimal toxicity, and monitoring of therapeutic efficacy. However, one of the current challenges in developing theranostic nanoparticles is enhancing the tumor-specific targeting of both imaging probes and anticancer agents. Herein, we report the development of tumor-homing echogenic...
متن کاملCancer Theranostics: An Introduction
Theranostics is a portmanteau of therapeutics and diagnostics. It can be diagnosis followed by therapy to stratify patients who will likely respond to a given treatment. It can also be therapy followed by diagnosis to monitor early response to treatment and predict treatment efficacy. It is also possible that diagnostics and therapeutics are codeveloped. For example, nanoplatforms can be design...
متن کاملUltrasound microbubbles for molecular diagnosis, therapy, and theranostics.
Ultrasound imaging is clinically established for routine screening examinations of breast, abdomen, neck, and other soft tissues, as well as for therapy monitoring. Microbubbles as vascular contrast agents improve the detection and characterization of cancerous lesions, inflammatory processes, and cardiovascular pathologies. Taking advantage of the excellent sensitivity and specificity of ultra...
متن کاملRemotely Triggered Nano-Theranostics For Cancer Applications
Nanotechnology has enabled the development of smart theranostic platforms that can concurrently diagnose disease, start primary treatment, monitor response, and, if required, initiate secondary treatments. Recent in vivo experiments demonstrate the promise of using theranostics in the clinic. In this paper, we review the use of remotely triggered theranostic nanoparticles for cancer application...
