Ultrasound-Induced Stable and Inertial Cavitation of Magnetic Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery Applications

Drug-loaded magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) accumulated by an external magnetic field already showed their efficacy in localized tumor treatment in animal studies. Furthermore, specific MNPs are sonosensitive, enabling them to generate inertial cavitation when exposed to a focused ultrasound field. Th...
