Abstract [eng] New dosimetric estimate for ultrasound and microbubble assissted molecular delivery method (sonoporation) is presented in current study. Ultrasound signals, attenuated by cavitating microbubbles, were quantified as amplitude vs. time integral – „AMP dose“. The latter metric accurately (R2=0.97) predicts irreversible sonoporation to CHO cells, induced by microbubble cavitation in vitro, and holds promising prospects for future applications to dosimetric evaluation of molecular delivery.
