Blood Brain Barrier Disruption by Focused Ultrasound and Microbubbles: A Numerical Study on Mechanical Effects
Introduction: Microbubbles are widely used as contrast agent in diagnostic ultrasound. Recently they have shown good potential for applications in the therapeutic field such as drug delivery to the brain. Recent studies have shown focused ultrasound in conjunction with injected micro-bubbles could temporarily disrupt blood-brain barrier and let therapeutic agents transport into...
متن کاملVessel size index MRI to monitor the effects of vascular disruption by ASA404 (vadimezan, 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid) in orthotopic gliomas
Introduction: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumour type in adults but survival times remain low, irrespective of current treatments. Vascular disrupting agents (VDAs) significantly reduce tumour blood flow; and as gliomas are highly vascularised tumours, VDAs are attractive for developing new treatment strategies. Non-invasive methods of monitoring vascular targeted treatment effect...
متن کاملHistology far away from Flatland: 3D roller-coasting into grade-dependent angiogenetic patterns in oligodendrogliomas
Angiogenesis plays a key role in tumour progression, and undergoes structural changes associated to tumour biology itself. Although vessel density can be easily evaluated in brain tumours using a traditional immuno-histochemical approach, other parameters of conceptual/biological interest, such as the complex patterns of vascular growth, cannot be fully understood using a traditional bi-dimensi...
متن کاملAutoregulation of Blood Flow: Vessel Diameter Changes in Response to Different Temperatures
Background: Autoregulation of blood flow is a marvelous phenomenon balanc- ing blood supply and tissue demand. Although many chemically-based explanations for this phenomenon have been proposed and some of them are commonly used today, biomechanical aspects of this phenomenon was neglected. The biomechanical aspect provides insights to us to model vessel diameter changes more precisely and comp...
متن کاملComputational simulations of nanoparticle transport in a three-dimensional capillary network
Objective(s): Multifunctional nanomedicine is the new generation of medicine, which is remarkably promising and associated with the minimum toxicity of targeted therapy. Distribution and transport of nanoparticles (NPs) in the blood flow are essential to the evaluation of delivery efficacy. Materials and Methods: In the present study, we initially designed a phantom based on Murray’s mini...
