Focused Ultrasound‐Induced Mechanical Ablation Affects the Carbohydrate Metabolism of Residual/Peri‐Focally Localized Glioblastoma Cells

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma (GBM) is highly aggressive and therapy‐resistant, warranting exploration of novel treatment strategies, among them mechanical high‐intensity focused ultrasound (mFUS), which holds significant promise for tumor ablation. The present study examined mFUS‐induced changes specifically in carbohydrate metabolism, which affects vulnerability to ...
