Abstract
Targeted therapy and early accurate detection of malignant lesions are essential for the effectiveness of treatment and prognosis in cancer patients. The development of gaseous system as a versatile platform for the fabricated nanobubbles, has attracted much interest in improving the efficacy of ultrasound therapeutic, diagnostic, and theranostic platforms. Nano-sized bubble, as an ultrasound contrast agent, with spherical gas-filled structures exhibited contrast enhancement capability due to their inherent EPR effect. Additionally, nanobubbles exhibited good stability with extended retention time in the blood stream. The current review summarized various nanobubbles and discussed about the crucial parameters affecting the stability of ultrafine bubbles. Furthermore, therapeutic and theranostic gaseous systems for fighting against cancer were described.
