Abstract

In magnetic drug targeting, superparamagnetic nanoparticles are used as drug carriers. The local accumulation of these particles at the site of the tumor leads to a temporary change in the effective elastic tissue properties in this area. Therefore, mapping this change should allow visualization of the particle distribution. Ultrasound strain imaging is a method to map the local variation of elasticity. This method was tested using a polyvinyl alcohol ultrasound phantom with a magnetic nanoparticle inclusion. It was demonstrated, that this inclusion can be mapped in the proposed way.
