Ultrasound monitoring of Lip-ABC or Lip-PBS after HIFU triggering with different powers.

Notes: (AD) Ultrasound monitoring of Lip-ABC after HIFU triggering (60, 90, 120, and 150 w). (EH) Ultrasound monitoring of Lip-PBS after HIFU triggering (60, 90, 120, and 150 w). (I) Average gray-scale difference of each group after HIFU triggering. (J) Schematic illustration of HIFU triggering Lip-ABC to generate CO2 bubbles. Arrows represented sequential occurrencing. *P<0.05, **P<0.01.

Abbreviations: Lip-ABC, liposomes containing ammonium bicarbonate; HIFU, high-intensity focused ultrasound; Lip-PBS, liposomes containing phosphate-buffered saline.
