What are the Applications of Nanotechnology in Doppler Ultrasound?
The integration of nanotechnology in Doppler ultrasound has several noteworthy applications:
Targeted Imaging: Nanoparticles can be engineered to bind to specific biomarkers or tissues, allowing for targeted imaging of certain diseases or conditions. Enhanced Contrast Agents: Traditional contrast agents can be replaced or supplemented with nanoparticle-based agents, which provide better image clarity and detail. Theranostics: Combining therapeutic and diagnostic capabilities, nanoparticles can be used for both diagnosing a condition and delivering treatment simultaneously.
