| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims development of basic technologies for medical application of the high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for minimal invasive before-birth fetal therapy, especially for therapy of congenital diaphragmatic hernia. We invented a new method to release a balloon, in fetal trachea by easy delivery of HIFU. We confirmed that balloon was inflated by nano-droplet or micro-capsuled limonene and wall of the balloon was broken or perforated only by HIFU-delivery with high probability in phantom and in vitro animal experiments.
