Simple microbubble robots use enzymes to navigate tumors and deliver drugs
Microrobots have long promised precision drug delivery inside the human body, but making them ...
Biotechnology company Bracco Imaging announced its expansion into the cell-therapy manufacturing space, establishing a new ...
The potential of microrobots is enormous. These miniature objects can be designed to carry out actions within the body, such as sensing biomarkers, manipulating objects like blood clots, or delivering ...
Bracco Imaging is expanding into the cell therapy space to explore new applications of its long-established microbubble technology.
Researchers have developed a bubble microrobot capable of being guided around the tiny complex blood vessels of the brain using ultrasound. Successfully tested in mice, the ‘microvehicle’ holds ...
Bracco’s cell selection and activation microbubble technology is designed to support both positive- and negative-selection strategies.
A clinical study shows that preoperative dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help predict how microbubbles will distribute in the human brain. This is ...
Researchers at UT Southwestern have developed a first-of-its-kind ultrasound-guided cancer immunotherapy platform that delivers immune-stimulating agents to cells for the development of systemic ...

Cancer researchers are a step closer to finding a cure for advanced prostate cancer after effectively combining an anti-cancer drug with a viral gene therapy in vivo using novel ultrasound-targeted ...
Tumour vasculature is an important component of tumour growth and survival. Recent evidence indicates tumour vasculature also has an important role in tumour radiation response. In this study, we ...
Get enough bacteria in one place and they like to settle down into longer-term colonies, building sticky biofilms that protect them from our best cleaning efforts. But now, researchers from the ...
