Aktivierung von Metallkomplexen durch Ultraschallwellen für eine gezielte Krebstherapie

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Ultrasound enables non‐invasive activation of metal‐based therapeutics deep within tumors. Acoustic cavitation can drive sonodynamic reactive oxygen species generation or mechanochemical metal–ligand bond dissociation, enabling controlled release of bioactive payloads.

Staged Bilateral Magnetic Resonance‐Guided Focused Ultrasound for Treating Essential Tremor: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Unilateral magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy reduces tremor in essential tremor, yet disability often persists on the untreated side. The added benefit and safety of a staged contralateral lesion remain uncertain.

Harnessing the nonthermal effects of ultrasound for cancer treatment: From mechanisms to applications

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Nonthermal ultrasound transforms acoustic energy into diverse therapeutic bioeffects through cavitation, mechanical stimulation, and physicochemical activation. This review discusses how acoustic parameters, biological mechanisms, and responsive materials interact to influence nonthermal ultrasound‐enabled cancer therapies. Mechanism‐guided engineering

Mapping the lineage of prostate tissue ablation medical device predicates for focal therapy of prostate cancer approved via the FDA 510(k) clearance pathway

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Medical devices are reviewed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for safety and effectiveness. Class II devices can receive 510(k) clearance if they are “substantially equivalent” to an existing predicate device. This process can be repeated iteratively, leading to a lineage of predicates for newly cleared devices.
