This presentation, via examples, will offer a few insights into how nanotechnology and imaging devices can change both fundamental medical science and the clinical management of diseases.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESpecifically, several high-resolution, high-sensitivity, depth-resolved imaging techniques capable of visualizing structural, functional and molecular\/cellular properties of tissue will be introduced. These techniques rely on targeted imaging contrast nanoagents to visualize the cellular and molecular signature of the disease or pathology. For example, ultrasound-guided photoacoustic (USPA) imaging (e.g., lightning and thunder) will be introduced where ultrasound is used to visualize the anatomical features and functional\/physiological activity, and nanoparticle-augmented photoacoustics is used to assess molecular\/cellular information about the tissue. Several applications of in vivo USPA imaging ranging from the cancer detection and diagnosis to cell tracking to image-guided molecular and mechano-thermal therapy will be presented. The role of the nanoconstructs in these applications will be highlighted, and the development of nanoconstructs with enhanced properties will be discussed. Finally, current challenges and concerns associated with nanobiotechnology will be presented, and possible solutions will be discussed.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u0022In Vivo Ultrasound and Photoacoustic Imaging and Image-guided Therapy of Cancer\u0022 - Stanislav Emelianov, Ph.D. - Georgia Tech"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2016-01-27 14:16:05","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:16:54","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2016-02-02T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2016-02-02T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2016-02-02T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2016-02-02 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2016-02-02 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2016-02-02 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"361991":{"id":"361991","type":"image","title":"Integrated Cancer Research Center","body":null,"created":"1449245782","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 16:16:22","changed":"1475895098","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:51:38","alt":"Integrated Cancer Research Center","file":{"fid":"201581","name":"icrc_logo_image_2014-square.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/icrc_logo_image_2014-square_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/icrc_logo_image_2014-square_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":3173213,"path_740":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/icrc_logo_image_2014-square_0.jpg?itok=0Vt6IfQ_"}}},"media_ids":["361991"],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/bme.gatech.edu\/bme\/faculty\/Stanislav-Emelianov","title":"Emelianov profile"},{"url":"http:\/\/petitinstitute.gatech.edu\/integrated-cancer-research-center-seminars","title":"ICRC Seminar Series Schedule"}],"groups":[{"id":"1254","name":"Wallace H.
