Abstract:
Methods for killing cancer cells and treating cancer in a subject by exposing the cells to nanoparticles, and irradiating with a focused, low to medium power ultrasound. The nanoparticles can be gold, iron oxide, copper, silver, polystyrene, PEG, or liposome nanoparticles. The nanoparticles can have a cancer drug attached, such as an antibody-based cancer drug.
