Lead-Free HIFU Transducers

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2022
High-intensity focused ultrasound transducers operating at 4 MHz based on lead-free piezoceramics from the sodium bismuth titanate (NBT) family are described. First, the piezoelectric material (Pz12X) is evaluated from the standpoint of transducer design and its important characteristics, including temperature dependance of several parameters such as ...

T-lymphocytes from focused ultrasound ablation subsequently mediate cellular antitumor immunity after adoptive cell transfer immunotherapy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundOur previous studies found that high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) stimulated tumor-specific T cells in a mouse H22 tumor model, and adoptive transfer of the T cells from HIFU-treated mice could subsequently elicit stronger inhibition on ...
