Ultrasound Therapy
There is a new therapy of implanting an ultrasound device, called SonoCloud-9, to treat patients with glioblastoma that has recurred. SonoCloud® uses the therapeutic potential of pulsed ultrasound to temporarily disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB). With the BBB disrupted this opens a window where drug therapies can be administered. The goal is for drugs to reach the brain in higher and more effective concentrations during this time.
