The literature describing the use of low-intensity ultrasound in four major areas of cancer
therapy—sonodynamic therapy, ultrasound-mediated chemotherapy, ultrasound-mediated …

At present, cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Treatment failure
remains one of the prime hurdles in cancer treatment due to the metastatic nature of cancer …

Imaging has become an essential tool in modern radiotherapy (RT), being used to plan dose
delivery prior to treatment and verify target position before and during treatment. Ultrasound …

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Several emerging technologies are
helping to battle cancer. Cancer therapies have been effective at killing cancer cells, but a …

Acoustic cavitation has been widely explored for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
Ultrasound-induced cavitation, including inertial cavitation and non-inertial cavitation, can …

Ultrasound-triggered microbubbles destruction leading to vascular shutdown have resulted
in preclinical studies in tumor growth delay or inhibition, lesion formation, radio-sensitization …

Sphingolipids are well-recognized critical components in several biological processes.
Ceramides constitute a class of sphingolipid metabolites that are involved in important …

Background Preclinical studies have demonstrated that tumour cell death can be enhanced
10-to 40-fold when radiotherapy is combined with focussed ultrasound-stimulated …

Selective induction of tumor thrombus infarction is a promising antitumor strategy. Non‐
persistent embolism due to non‐compacted thrombus and activated fibrinolytic system within …

Abstract Background High-dose radiotherapy (> 8–10 Gy) causes rapid endothelial cell
death via acid sphingomyelinase (ASMase)–induced ceramide production, resulting in …
