Abstrakt: Objectives: Although magnetically induced hyperthermia has shown great efficiency in the treatment of solid tumors, it is still a challenge to avoid incomplete ablation or overtreatment. In this study, we applied magnetomotive ultrasound shear wave elastography (MMUS-SWE) as a tool for real-time image guidance and feedback in the magnetic hyperthermia (MH) process. We called this new method as magneto-acoustic theranostic approach (MATA).
Methods: In MATA, a ferromagnetic particle (fMP) was simultaneously used as a thermoseed for MH and a shear wave source for MMUS-SWE. The fMP was excited by a high-frequency magnetic field to induce the heating effect for MH. Meanwhile, the fMP was stimulated by a pulsed magnetic field to generate shear wave propagation for MMUS-SWE. Thus, the changes in elastic modulus surrounding fMP can be used to estimate the therapy effect of MH.
Results: The phantom and in vitro experiments were conducted to verify the feasibility of MATA, which has good performance in magnetothermal conversion and treatment efficacy feedback. The shear wave speed of the isolated pork liver changed significantly after the MH process, which varied from about 1.36 to 4.85 m/s.
Conclusions: Preliminary results proved that changes in elastic modulus could be useful to estimate the therapy effect of MH. We expect that MATA, which is the integration of MMUS-SWE and MH, will be a novel theranostic method for clinical translation.
