Title:
病変組織の超音波イメージング及び処置方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006505498
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method for imaging diseased tissue is provided. The method provides delivering to the diseased tissue a liposomal imaging agent comprising liposomes containing an imaging agent. The liposomal imaging agent is bound to an antibody by an antigenic linker so that the antibody binds the liposomal imaging agent to the diseased tissue. The liposomes are broken to release the imaging agent using a catheter, and the imaging agent is viewed using an imaging technique. The tissue can also be treated by delivering a therapeutic agent to the tissue using the catheter, for example, within the liposomes of the liposomal imaging agent.
