Real-Time Monitoring Of Regional Tissue Elasticity During FUS Focused Ultrasound Therapy Using Harmonic Motion Imaging
The feasibility of the Harmonic Motion Imaging (HMI) technique for simultaneous monitoring and generation of focused ultrasound therapy using two separate focused ultrasound transducer elements has previously been shown. In this study, a new HMI technique is described that images tissue displacement induced by a harmonic radiation force induced using a single focused ultrasound element. First, ...
متن کاملA new noninvasive approach in breast cancer therapy using magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery.
An ideal vision of modern medicine includes tumor surgery with the human body remaining completely intact. A noninvasive therapy could avoid infections and scar formation; it would require less anesthesia, reduce recovery time, and possibly also reduce costs. This study investigated whether human breast cancer can be effectively treated with a novel combination of image guidance and energy deli...
متن کاملHematoPorphyrin Monomethyl Ether polymer contrast agent for ultrasound/photoacoustic dual-modality imaging-guided synergistic high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy
This study is to prepare a hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME)-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microcapsules (HMME/PLGA), which could not only function as efficient contrast agent for ultrasound (US)/photoacoustic (PA) imaging, but also as a synergistic agent for high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation. Sonosensitizer HMME nanoparticles were integrated into PLGA microc...
متن کاملFocused ultrasound and immunotherapy
Background/introduction Thermal therapy has tremendous potential to augment the benefits of immunotherapy. The ability of heat to stimulate both general and tumor specific responses, in part through heat shock protein mediated mechanisms has been known for over two decades. Significant challenges persist however in translating these effects into predictable and meaningful clinical responses. Mo...
متن کاملIntracranial Applications of MR Imaging-Guided Focused Ultrasound.
Initially used in the treatment of prostate cancer and uterine fibroids, the role of focused ultrasound has expanded as transcranial acoustic wave distortion and other limitations have been overcome. Its utility relies on focal energy deposition via acoustic wave propagation. The duty cycle and intensity of focused ultrasound influence the rate of energy deposition and result in unique physiolo...
