A method for radiation-force localized drug delivery using gas-filled lipospheres

A method for radiation-force localized drug delivery using gas-filled lipospheres

We have developed a method using ultrasound and acoustically active lipospheres (AALs) that might be used to deliver bioactive substances to the vascular endothelium. The AALs consist of a small gas bubble surrounded by a thick oil shell and enclosed by an outermost lipid layer. The AALs are similar...
