  • Magnetic particle actuation
    Patent number: 11890488
    Abstract: Magnetic particle actuating systems may include a magnet system configured to generate a magnetic field that includes a field-free region. A corresponding control system can be configured to control the magnet system to create a field-free region at least partially matching a target region. An excitation system can be configured to generate an excitation field to cause actuation of magnetic nanoparticles in an actuation region.
    Type: Grant

  • GAS VESICLE ULTRASOUND CONTRAST AGENTS AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20140288421
    Abstract: Provided are ultrasound imaging methods that include administering to a subject a contrast agent that includes a plurality of collapsible gas vesicles, obtaining ultrasound data of a target site of interest, and analyzing the ultrasound data to produce an ultrasound image of the target site. Ultrasound contrast agents are also provided. The subject methods and contrast agents find use in ultrasound imaging applications.
