Ultra-high-frequency radio-frequency acoustic molecular imaging is a safe molecular imaging diagnostic option because it does not require radioactive probes or high magnetic fields, but lack of biocompatible targeted contrast agents has so far limited its in vivo application. In this paper the authors present perfluorocarbon nanodroplets containing hypertonic saline solution for targeted molecular imaging of prostate cancer in animal models.
