Transducer design for a portable ultrasound enhanced transdermal drug-delivery system
2002
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control
For application in a portable transdermal drug-delivery system, novel transducers have been designed to enhance insulin transmission across skin using ultrasound. Previous research has shown transdermal delivery of insulin across skin using commercial sonicators operating at 20 kHz with intensities ranging from 12.5 to 225 mW/cm 2 . The goal of this research was to design and construct a small, lightweight transducer or array that could operate with a similar frequency and intensity range as a
