Ultrasound Transducer for Acoustic Cluster Therapy

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

Acoustic Cluster Therapy (ACT) is a novel approach to targeted therapeutic enhancement comprising a unique microbubble-microdroplet cluster formulation that is activated by the application of regular diagnostic ultrasound. The procedure consists of a two-step process, firstly intravenous administration of the micro-bubble-microdroplet formulation followed by the application of ultrasound to enhance therapeutic delivery of the co-administered pharmaceutical product. In this project we will focus on developing the next generation ultrasound technology that will allow the ability to perform ACT on a vast array of indications, treating them in 3D whilst using ultrasound consoles already available in clinical facilities world-wide.
