Medical Device Advances in the Treatment of Glioblastoma

Raspagliesi et al. advanced SDT in 2021 using MRI-guided techniques with FL and 5-ALA induced PPIX in a porcine model, showing clinical feasibility. SDT combines ultrasound with sonosensitizers like PPIX and FL for targeted tumor treatment. HIFU and EFT, including Optune, show promise in GBM treatment, with ongoing trials to optimize efficacy and safety.
