Focused ultrasound can be safely used in children being treated for brain cancer
[ad_1] Columbia University researchers are the first to show that focused ultrasound – a non-invasive technique that uses sound waves to enhance the delivery of drugs into the brain – can be safely used in children being treated for brain cancer. The focused ultrasound technique, developed by Columbia engineers, was tested in combination with chemotherapy in three children with diffuse midline glioma, a rare and aggressive brain cancer that is universally fatal. The study found that focused…
