ABSTRACT:
Targeted tissue in vivo is altered using focused energy to specifically control endothelial permeability and interstitial integrity. Image guidance may be used in combination with physical energy deposition to facilitate the targeted delivery of materials. The method of the invention serves as a platform for delivering pharmaceutical agents, nucleic acids, proteins, liposomes, etc. to cells.
