•    Contrast-enhanced ultrasound for evaluation of anti-angiogenic treatment;
•    In vivo ultrasound-mediated gene delivery;
•    Use of targeted and coated microbubbles to characterize breast cancer xenografts;
•    Ultrasound contrast monitoring of tumor vasculature;
•    Carotid plaque imaging; and
•    Temporal tumor angiogenic marker assessment.
