Microbubble-Assisted Ultrasound for Drug Delivery in the Brain and Central Nervous System
Abstract
The blood-brain barrier is a serious impediment to the delivery of pharmaceutical treatments for brain diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative and neuropsychatric diseases. Focused ultrasound, when combined with microbubbles, has emerged as an effective method to transiently and locally open the blood-brain barrier to promote drug delivery to the brain. Focused ultrasound has been used to successfully deliver a wide variety of therapeutic agents to pre-clinical disease models. The requirement for clinical translation of focused ultrasound technology is considered.

Due to preclinical success of FUS with microbubble for noninvasive, transient, targeted delivery through the BBB and use in brain tumors, this technology is rapidly moving towards clinical testing for early AD and PD.
“In addition, due to the preclinical success of FUS with microbubble for noninvasive, transient, and targeted delivery of therapeutics through the BBB (84) and use in brain tumors (NCT02343991; NCT01473485), this technology is rapidly moving towards clinical testing for early AD (NCT02986932) and PD (NCT02347254; NCT02252380) (477).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
