Microbubble driven multimodal imaging and theranostics for gliomas (THERAGLIO)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2018,

Microbubbles (MBs) are used as contrast agent in ultrasound (US) imaging for a variety of tumours while little has been done for glioblastomas, a rare cancer. Intraoperative Contrast-Enhanced US-imaging (CEUS) using lipidic MBs hold promises in increasing extent of resection of such tumors. Furthermore, MBs gained recently interest as a delivery system for drugs. We will develop a new generation o ...
