• Effect of acoustic radiation force on displacement of nanoparticles in collagen gels 

      Løvmo, Mia Kvåle; Yemane, Petros Tesfamichael; Bjørkøy, Astrid; Hansen, Rune; Cleveland, Robin O.; Angelsen, Bjørn Atle Johan; Davies, Catharina de Lange (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Penetration of nanoscale therapeutic agents into the extracellular matrix (ECM) of a tumor is a limiting factor for the sufficient delivery of drugs in tumors. Ultrasound (US) in combination with microbubbles causing ...
    • Effect of Acoustic Radiation Force on the Distribution of Nanoparticles in Solid Tumors. 

      Afadzi, Mercy; Myhre, Ola Finneng; Yemane, Petros Tesfamichael; Bjørkøy, Astrid; Torp, Sverre Helge; van Wamel, Annemieke; Lelu, Sylvie; Angelsen, Bjørn Atle Johan; Davies, Catharina de Lange (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Acoustic radiation force (ARF) might improve the distribution of nanoparticles (NPs) in tumors. To study this, tumors growing subcutaneously in mice were exposed to focused ultrasound (FUS) either 15 min or 4 h after the ...
    • Effect of ultrasound on the vasculature and extravasation of nanoscale particles imaged in real time 

      Yemane, Petros Tesfamichael; Åslund, Andreas K. O.; Snipstad, Sofie; Bjørkøy, Astrid; Grendstad, Kristin; Berg, Sigrid; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Torp, Sverre Helge; Hansen, Rune; Davies, Catharina de Lange (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Ultrasound and microbubbles have been found to improve the delivery of drugs and nanoparticles to tumor tissue. To obtain new knowledge on the influence of vascular parameters on extravasation and to elucidate the effect ...
    • The Effect of Sonication on Extravasation and Distribution of Nanoparticles and Dextrans in Tumor Tissue Imaged by Multiphoton Microscopy 

      Yemane, Petros Tesfamichael; Åslund, Andreas; Sæterbø, Kristin Grendstad; Bjørkøy, Astrid; Snipstad, Sofie; van Wamel, Annemieke; Berg, Sigrid; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Hansen, Rune; Angelsen, Bjørn Atle Johan; Davies, Catharina de Lange (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Ultrasound (US)and systemic administration of microbubbles (MBs)have been shown to improve the delivery of drugs and nanoparticles (NPs)to tumor tissue. A better understanding of the mechanisms is crucial for effective ...
