Abstract: Superheated perfluorocarbon nanodroplets are emerging ultrasound imaging contrast agents that boast biocompatible components, unique phase-change dynamics, and therapeutic loading capabilities. Upon exposure to a sufficiently high-intensity pulse of acoustic energy, the nanodroplet’s perfluorocarbon core undergoes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/nano12132251
Abstract: Perfluorocarbon nanodroplets offer an alternative to gaseous microbubbles as contrast agents for ultrasound imaging. They can be acoustically activated to induce a liquid-to-gas phase transition and provide contrast in ultrasound images. In this study, we… read more here.
