Response of single cells to shock waves and numerically optimized waveforms for cancer therapy

Abstract:

Shock waves are used clinically for breaking kidney stones and treating musculoskeletal indications. The mechanisms by which shock waves interact with tissue are still not well understood. Here, ultra-high-speed imaging was used to visualize the deformation of individual cells embedded in a tissue-mimicking phantom when subject to shock-wave exposure from a clinical source. Three kidney epithelial cell lines were considered to represent normal healthy (human renal epithelial), cancer (CAKI-2)...
