Abstract
McDannold et al have demonstrated that the administration of a microbubble-based US contrast agent reduces the acoustic power threshold required to induce lesions in rabbit brains with high-intensity focused ultrasound and that this procedure may potentially be monitored with MR thermometry. If these results can be reproduced in future clinical trials, this combination may enable precisely controlled noninvasive ablation of brain tumors with MR imaging guidance.
