Costas Arvanitis’ research program is focused on biomedical acoustics and its overarching goal is the discovery and translation to the clinics of novel therapeutic interventions against human disease. Specific areas of his research include linear and nonlinear acoustics, ultrasound biophysics, microbubble dynamics (acoustic cavitation) and control, image guided therapy, (brain) cancer research, and neuroengineering.
New research offers therapeutic hope for patients battling conditions like brain cancer or Alzheimer’s disease.
Algorithm-controlled focused ultrasound system uses microbubbles to open a pathway for a powerful immunotherapy to reach brain tumors
Georgia Tech and Emory researchers use ultrasound to develop delivery system for potent RNA drugs
Multidisciplinary researchers uncover new ways to use ultrasound energy to image and treat hard-to-reach areas of brain
