• Effect of ultrasound on the distribution of nanoparticles in tumor tissue 

      Søvik, Kishia Stojcevska (Master thesis, 2013)
      PC-3 prostate adenocarcinoma cells were injected subcutaneously in the hind leg of female Balb/c nude mice. After a few weeks of tumor growth, 200 $\mu$L of a solution containing gas bubbles stabilized by PBCA nanoparticles ...

      Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Hansen, Rune; Berg, Sigrid; Åslund, Andreas; Glomm, Wilhelm; Eggen, Siv; Schmid, Ruth; Johnsen, Heidi; Kubowicz, Stephan; Snipstad, Sofie; Sulheim, Einar; Hak, Sjoerd; Singh, Gurvinder; McDonagh, Birgitte Hjelmeland; Blom, Hans; Davies, Ruth Catharina de Lange; Stenstad, Per Martin (Journal article, 2015)
      Microbubbles (MBs) are routinely used as contrast agents for ultrasound imaging. The use of ultrasound in combination with MBs has also attracted attention as a method to enhance drug delivery. We have developed a technology ...
    • Ultrasound in Imaging and Delivery of Nanomedicine in Cancer Tissue 

      Eggen, Siv (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:27, Doctoral thesis, 2015)
      Nanotechnology in therapy of solid tumors is a strategy where the cytotoxic drugs are encapsulated into nano-sized particles. It is expected that therapy using nanomedicine will result in both increased specificity of the ...
