High-intensity ultrasound destroys contrast microbubbles in vitro; supports parameter optimization but leaves open clinical translation.
Do different ultrasound delivery parameters (intensity, duration, frequency) affect the destruction of contrast microbubbles in an in vitro model?
Ultrasound energy-mediated destruction of contrast microbubbles is highly dependent on intensity, duration, and frequency, suggesting that optimizing these parameters can control microbubble destruction.
Walker et al. (1997) studied this question.
