Contrast-agent-enhanced ultrasound thermal ablation [PDF]
The small thermal lesions induced when using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to ablate tumors results in long treatment duration. In this study, the effect of using ultrasound contrast agent (UCA, Definity) to enhance the ultrasound (US) thermal effects and, thus to enlarge the lesion size, was studied in transparent tissue phantoms insonified

Enhancement of the ionoacoustic effect through ultrasound and photoacoustic contrast agents [PDF]
AbstractThe characteristic depth dose deposition of ion beams, with a maximum at the end of their range (Bragg peak) allows for local treatment delivery, resulting in better sparing of the adjacent healthy tissues compared to other forms of external beam radiotherapy treatments.

Safety Assessment of Ultrasound-Assisted Intravesical Chemotherapy in Normal Dogs: A Pilot Study
Intravesical chemotherapy after transurethral resection is a treatment option in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. The efficacy of intravesical chemotherapy is determined by the cellular uptake of intravesical drugs.

Ultrasound Contrast Agent Microbubble Dynamics [PDF]
Ultrasound contrast agents are traditionally used in ultrasound-assisted organ perfusion imaging. Recently the use of coated microbubbles has been proposed for molecular imaging applications where the bubbles are covered with a layer of targeting ligands
