Focused Ultrasound-Enhanced Nanoparticle Delivery in a Mouse Model for Tumor Therapy

Begin with an anesthetized tumor-bearing mouse and shave its head.Place it in an MRI scanner integrated with the focused ultrasound system.The initial MRI scan locates the brain tumor and nearby blood vessels.Inject a contrast agent intravenously, then administer fluorescently labeled nanoparticles coated onto gas-filled microbubbles.The contrast agent and microbubbles circulate and reach the brain.Apply focused ultrasound waves to the tumor site.The ultrasound causes the microbubbles to expand...
