Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition of albumin microbubbles to which are bound one or more moieties that exhibit a binding preference for the albumin microbubbles relative to free, native HSA. Production of the albumin microbubble composition and use of the albumin microbubble composition in ultrasound mediated delivery of therapeutic or diagnostic agents is also discussed.

Abstract: A contrast agent composition and a method of diagnostic imaging are provided. The composition comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a metal-complex comprising a ligand having structure (XXX): wherein R1, R2, R3, R7, R8, R?1, R?2, R?3, R7? and R8? are selected form hydrogen, a protected C1-C3 hydroxyalkyl group, or a C1-C3 alkyl group; R4, R?4 are selected from a hydrogen, a hydroxyl, a protected hydroxyl group, a protected C1-C3 hydroxyalkyl group, a C1-C3 alkyl group; n is an integer between 0 and 4; R5, R?5 are selected from a hydrogen, a protecting group comprising C1-C30 aliphatic radicals, C3-C30 cycloaliphatic radicals, C2-C30 aromatic radicals, m is an integer between 1 and 10; at least one of R7 and R?7 is acidic groups or protected acidic groups; Y comprises a protein or peptide moiety, a particle, a micelle, a liposome, an organic molecule, oligomer, polymer or a hydrophilic moiety.

Abstract: A method of diagnostic imaging is disclosed comprising administering a medical formulation to a subject, the formulation comprising a contrast enhancement agent having structure I and salts thereof wherein R1 is independently at each occurrence a hydroxy group, a C1-C3 hydroxyalkyl group, or a C1-C3 alkyl group, and b is 0-4; R2-R7 are independently at each occurrence hydrogen, a C1-C3 hydroxyalkyl group, or a C1-C3 alkyl group, with the proviso that at least one of R1-R7 is a hydroxy group or a C1-C3 hydroxyalkyl group; and wherein Q is one or more charge balancing counterions; and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients. The subject is subjected to a diagnostic imaging technique such as magnetic resonance imaging. The technique may be used in a variety of diagnostic imaging regimes, such as imaging of circulatory systems, genitourinary systems, hepatobiliary systems, central nervous systems, tumors, and abscesses among others.
