They function by gathering around the tumor and detonating once triggered by low-frequency ultrasound waves.
The bubbles are 2,500 times smaller than a single grain of salt. The researchers say they’ve already tried the non-invasive procedure on an animal model: a mouse with breast cancer.
Dr. Ilovitsh and her team hope to overcome this issue by injecting nanobubbles into the bloodstream, rather than the tumor itself. "Applying the low frequency to the nanobubbles causes their extreme swelling and explosion, even at low pressures. This makes it possible to perform the mechanical destruction of the tumors at low-pressure thresholds.""Our method has the advantages of ultrasound, in that it is safe, cost-effective, and clinically available, and in addition, the use of nanobubbles facilitates the targeting of tumors because they can be observed with the help of ultrasound imaging.”Dr.
