| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study revealed that sonoporation, the combination of ultrasound and microbubbles, enhances the antitumor effect of a chemotherapeutic agent with minimum invasiveness in preclinical canine thyroid and bladder cancer models. Moreover, the results of this study clarified the mechanism of sonoporation. This preclinical study may contribute to establish sonoporation as a theranostic tool in cancer therapy.
