We have synthesized polymers with fluorinated end chains to formulate nanocapsules as ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) for tumor imaging. These nanocapsules are composed of a core of perfluorooctyl bromide (PFOB), a biocompatible and echogenic perfluorinated liquid, and a polymeric shell made of three blocks of different affinities. The hydrophilic block of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) at the surface of the nanocapsules allows increasing their circulation time in the blood and promoting their accumulation into tumors by the enhanced permeation and retention effect. The hydrophobic block of polylactide (PLA) allows generating a degradable shell with higher stability as compared to the surfactant- and lipid-based membranes of commercialized U...
