Ultrasound targeted microbubble destruction technology and its application in the treatment of breast cancer

Abstract

Abstract: UTMD which uses UCAs as carriers and combines genes or drugs to treat a variety of diseases has shown great potential.The UCAs under the low-frequency ultrasound irradiation produce sound hole and cavitation effect, which effectively increases the concentration of genes or drugs in the targeting cells that enhance the lethargy to breast cancer cells. Although UTMD technology has been proved to support clinical performance, it still faces some challenges in terms of the practical application.

Key words: ultrasound targeted microbubble destruction technology, breast cancer, treatment
