Abstract
Therapeutic agents, diagnostic agents and other compositions can be effectively delivered to target tissues using ultrasonic dispersion. For example, a therapeutic agent in solution may be injected subcutaneously in the vicinity of a target tissue in a patient. External ultrasound is used to disperse the therapeutic agent in the target tissue. The disclosed methods provide increased concentrations of therapeutic agents in tissue relative to traditional delivery methods, thereby improving therapeutic outcomes while reducing costs. In addition the methods can be used to deliver effective concentrations of therapeutic agents to tissues with limited blood supply.
