Abstract [en]

Acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) is the physical process of liquid-to-gas phase transition mediated by pressure variations in an ultrasound field. In this study, the acoustic response of novel particle-stabilized perfluoropentane droplets was studied in bulk and confined media. The oil/water interface was stabilized by cellulose nanofibers. First, their acoustic responses under idealized conditions were examined to assess their susceptibility to undergo ADV. Second, the droplets were studied in a more realistic setting and placed in a confined medium. Lastly, an imaging setup was developed and tested on the droplets. The acoustic response could be seen when the amplitude of the peak negative pressure (PNP) was above 200 kPa, suggesting that this is the vaporization pressure threshold for these droplets. Increasing the PNP resulted in a decrease in signal intensity over time, suggesting a more destructive behavior. The imaging setup was able to differentiate between the droplets and the surrounding tissue. Results obtained within this study suggest that these droplets have potential in terms of ultrasound-mediated diagnostics and therapy.
