Characterising the chemical and physical properties of phase-change nanodroplets [PDF]
Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2023 Phase-change nanodroplets have attracted increasing interest in recent years as ultrasound theranostic nanoparticles. They are smaller compared to microbubbles and they may distribute better in tissues (e.g. in tumours).

Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 The current study adopted an experimental paradigm of digital span to evaluate acute high‐altitude exposure impairment on working memory. The subjects showed obvious physiological adaptation mechanism at acute altitude. The results of hemodynamic response confirmed the important role of left DLPFC in the process of working memory, revealed abnormal ...

Tracer concentration profiles measured in central London as part of the REPARTEE campaign [PDF]
, 2011 There have been relatively few tracer experiments carried out that have looked at vertical plume spread in urban areas. In this paper we present results from two tracer (cyclic perfluorocarbon) experiments carried out in 2006 and 2007 in central London ...

Low‐boiling Point Perfluorocarbon Nanodroplets as Dual‐Phase Dual‐Modality MR/US Contrast Agent
ChemPhysChem, Volume 23, Issue 24, December 16, 2022., 2022 Low‐boiling point perfluorocarbon nanodroplets is vaporized into microbubbles using acoustic activation, establishing them as phase‐change contrast agents for ultrasound. The unique hyperCEST signatures of nanodroplets and microbubbles are demonstrated, enabling their use not only as a dual‐phase but also as a dual‐modality MR/US contrast agent ...

Subfoveal perfluorocarbon liquid droplet can be removed without puncturing the retina
Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023 Subfoveal perfluorocarbon liquid (PFL) is a vision-threatening complication that requires removal as safely as possible. We experienced a surgical case of proliferative vitreoretinopathy, in which a subfoveal PFL droplet was removed through the fovea ...
