DOI: 10.7150/thno.32172
Abstract: Chemotherapy is widely used in combination with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for cancer therapy; however, the spatial and temporal integration of chemotherapy and HIFU ablation remains a challenge. Here, temperature-sensitive plateletsomes (TSPs) composed of… read more here.
