Holographic focused ultrasound enables multitarget EV and MSC delivery for neurovascular repair after ischemic stroke
Key Takeaways
  • A 3D-printed hologram guides ultrasound to open the blood-brain barrier noninvasively.
  • A single two-minute hologram ultrasound treatment increased EV and MSC delivery and recovery.
  • HaMBO-assisted EV therapy decreased macrophage infiltration and boosted angiogenic and neurogenic signaling.
