Patent application number | Title | Published |
20110165088 | NANOBUBBLES USEFUL AS AN ULTRASONIC CONTRAST AGENT FOR LYMPHATIC SYSTEM - A composition is provided accompanying nonoparticles having diameters in the range of about 100 to 800 nanometers with hollow cores and outer shells with mechanical properties such that they rupture on exposure to predetermined ultrasound energy. The composition is useful for identifying sentinel lymph nodes. | 07-07-2011 |
20090274628 | RECONSTITUTABLE MICROSPHERE COMPOSITIONS USEFUL AS ULTRASONIC CONTRAST AGENTS - Methods and suspensions are provided that are useful for preparing readily reconstitutable, dry compositions of micro- or nanospheres. The dry compositions find use in diagnostic applications such as ultrasonic imaging. The suspension includes as key ingredients one or both of t-butyl alcohol and/or an amorphous sugar (or mixture of amorphous sugars) in specified amounts that reduce aggregation of the particles comprising the suspension. | 11-05-2009 |
20090162293 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR ULTRASOUND IMAGING OF APOPTOSIS - In some aspects, there are provided compositions and kits including annexin coupled to ultrasound contrast particles as well as methods utilizing these particles for diagnosis and treatment of pathological conditions characterized by apoptosis. | 06-25-2009 |
20090081130 | MICROPARTICLES USEFUL AS ULTRASONIC CONTRAST AGENTS AND FOR DELIVERY OF DRUGS INTO THE BLOODSTREAM - Microparticles are provided comprising a shell of an outer layer of a biologically compatible material and an inner layer of biodegradable polymer. The core of the microparticles contain a gas, liquid or solid for use in drug delivery or as a contrast agent for ultrasonic contrast imaging. The microparticles are capable of passing through the capillary systems of a subject. | 03-26-2009 |
20080319320 | METHOD OF IMAGING LYMPHATIC SYSTEM USING NANOCAPSULE COMPOSITIONS - A composition is provided accompanying nanoparticles having diameters in the range of about 100 to 800 nanometers with hollow cores and outer shells with mechanical properties such that they rupture on exposure to predetermined ultrasound energy. The composition is useful for identifying sentinel lymph nodes. | 12-25-2008 |
