Effects of droplet composition on nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy
Vlaisavljevich, Eli; Aydın, Ömer; Durmaz Yüksel, Yasemin; Lin, Kuang-Wei; Fowlkes, Brian; Xu, Zhen; ElSayed, Mohamed E. H. (Elsevier Science Inc, 2016)Nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy (NMH) is a targeted ablation technique combining histotripsy with nanodroplets that can be selectively delivered to tumor cells. In two previous studies, polymer-encapsulated perfluoropentane ... -
Effects of ultrasound frequency on nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy
Vlaisavljevich, Eli; Aydın, Ömer; Yüksel Durmaz, Yasemin; Lin, Kuangwei; Fowlkes, Brian; Elsayed, Mohamed; Xu, Zhen (Elsevier Science, 2015)Nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy (NMH) is a targeted ultrasound ablation technique combining histotripsy with nanodroplets that can be selectively delivered to tumor cells for targeted tumor ablation. In a previous study, ... -
Noninvasive ablation of prostate cancer spheroids using acoustically-activated nanodroplets
Aydın, Ömer; Vlaisavljevich, Eli; Yüksel Durmaz, Yasemin; Xu, Zhen; ElSayed, Mohamed E. H. (Amer Chemical Soc, 2016)We have developed acoustically activated nanodroplets (NDs) using an amphiphilic triblock copolymer, which self-assembles and encapsulates different perfluorocarbons including perfluoropentane (PFP) and perfluorohexane ... -
The role of positive and negative pressure on cavitation nucleation in nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy
Vlaisavljevich, Eli; Aydın, Ömer; Lin, Kuang-Wei; Durmaz Yüksel, Yasemin; Fowlkes, Brian; ElSayed, Mohamed; Xu, Zhen (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2016)Nanodroplet-mediated histotripsy (NMH) is an ultrasound ablation technique combining histotripsy with acoustically sensitive perfluorocarbon (PFC) nanodroplets that can be selectively delivered to tumor cells for targeted ...
