Effect of Microbubble-enhanced Ultrasound on Prostate Permeability: A Potential Therapeutic Method for Prostate Disease

MEUS enhanced the prostate permeability, and it effectively opened the blood-prostate barrier. Hence, MEUS may serve as a potential noninvasive therapy for targeted drug or gene delivery to the prostate. However, the relationship between the acoustic parameters of MEUS and prostate permeability or the bioeffects of MEUS needs to be evaluated in future studies.
