At present, ultrasound radiation is broadly employed in medicine for both diagnostic and
therapeutic purposes at various frequencies and intensities. In this review article, we focus …

In this work, we present an in-depth review of recent breakthroughs in nanotechnology for
hyperthermia cancer therapy. Conventional hyperthermia methods do not thermally …

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), as a novel non-invasive strategy for eliminating tumor, has the
advantages of deeper tissue penetration, fewer side effects, and better patient compliance …

Biomedical acoustics is rapidly evolving from a diagnostic modality into a therapeutic tool,
and acoustic cavitation is often the common denominator in a wide range of new therapeutic …

We have used short laser pulses to generate transient vapor nanobubbles around
plasmonic nanoparticles. The photothermal, mechanical, and optical properties of such …

Acoustic cavitation has been shown to play a key role in a wide array of novel therapeutic
ultrasound applications. This paper presents a brief discussion of the physics of thermally …

Microbubbles and cavitation are playing an increasingly significant role in both diagnostic
and therapeutic applications of ultrasound. Microbubble ultrasound contrast agents have …

Laser-induced generation of the vapor bubbles in water around plasmonic nanoparticles
was experimentally studied with optical scattering methods. Nanoparticle-generated …

This article is focused on the optical generation and detection of photothermal vapor
bubbles around plasmonic nanoparticles. We report physical properties of such plasmonic …

The definition of cavitation is the formation of bubbles/cavities in a liquid or other medium,
and the subsequent bubble dynamics. Cavitation has been studied in several scientific …
