Our platform drug delivery technology used with focused ultrasound will improve care for people with serious diseases. We will provide non-invasive, targeted drug delivery to the brain as well as immunotherapy, activating the body's natural defences against cancer.

Microbubbles are a proven medical product used to enhance ultrasound imaging. Researchers and clinicians are beginning to demonstrate the enormous potential of ultrasound and microbubble enhanced therapies. Artenga’s microbubble drug conjugates are produced with an on-demand, easy to use generator.

The Focused Ultrasound Foundation approves a non-invasive, targeted, blood-brain barrier gene therapy delivery with our collaborators at Sunnybrook Research Institute and the University of Helsinki.  The CDNF gene therapy has shown potent neuroprotective and neurorestorive properties in brain cells damaged by Parkinson's Disease.

Dr. David Goertz of Sunnybrook Research Institute presents immunotherapy study results at the International Symposium of Therapeutic Ultrasound.  

Sunnybrook Research Institute Ontario Research Fund (ORF) project approved: Devices and Methods for Focused Ultrasound Interventions;  Principal Investigator is Dr. Kullervo Hynynen; Artenga Inc. an industry partner.
