Transcranial activation and imaging of low boiling point phase‐change contrast agents through the temporal bone using an ultrafast interframe activation ultrasound sequence

Abstract: Purpose: As a cavitation enhancer, low boiling point phase-change contrast agents (PCCA) offer potential for ultrasound-mediated drug delivery in applications including intracerebral hemorrhage or brain tumors. In addition to introducing cavitation, ultrasound imaging also has the ability to provide guidance and monitoring of the therapeutic process by localizing delivery events. However, the highly attenuating skull poses a challenge for achieving an image with useful contrast. In this study, the feasibility … Show more

“…Ultrasound and contrast mode combinations are presented in Figure 7B, which demonstrates the ability of their agents for nonlinear harmonic imaging. PFCnDs can be useful in neurological applications [43,44]. Focused ultrasound with microbubbles was investigated as an effective tool for blood brain barrier (BBB) opening to enable monitoring and treatment of neurological diseases [45].…”
