When applying therapeutic-ultrasound (TUS) for gene-delivery, there is a great need to understand the contribution of different parameters to the transfection process. The aim of this study is to optimize a wide range of parameters associated with the TUS system concurrent with parameters associated with the transfection, achieving high transfection level and efficiency (total number of cells), while localizing the DNA in the nucleus. Exposure of different cell-types (BHK, LNCaP, BCE) to TUS resulted in high gene expression (1200 fold) and efficiency (28%) with minimal loss in cell viability (
