Focused Ultrasound for Drug Delivery to the Brain: Ultrasound Frequency Matters
rberry
Key Points A recent paper highlights focused ultrasound’s flexibility as a platform for drug delivery to the brain. The publication, in the September 2024 edition of Nature Communications, demonstrated how focused ultrasound can be tuned to control the immune system’s response during blood-brain barrier (BBB) opening for therapeutic delivery. The researchers used advanced mathematical models and preclinical ...
