ABSTRACT
The potential clinical value of developing a novel, nonviral, ultrasound-directed gene and drug delivery system is immense. Investigators soon will initiate clinical trials with the goal of treating a wide variety of maladies using noninvasive, ultrasound-based technology. The ongoing, scientific validation associated with promising preclinical success portents a novel range of therapeutics. The clinical utility and eventual clinical successes await vigorous testing. This review highlights the recent successes and challenges within the field of ultrasound-mediated drug delivery.
