How Ultrasound Microbubbles Could Change Medicine
A groundbreaking study has enabled the use of ultrasound-guided microbubbles to navigate through blood vessels in the brain. This method promises a more targeted and less invasive approach for treating brain-related conditions, including tumors and psychological disorders, with potential to reduce side effects of medications. Credit: SciTechDaily.com ETH Zurich researchers have shown for the first time that microvehicles can be steered through blood vessels in the brains of mice using ultrasound. They hope that this will…
