within cells with acoustic energy. The cell-killing mechanism of these treatments has not been clearly determined. To identify the site and degree of damage to tumour cells by sonication, we studied the structure of the cell surface with scanning electron microscopy.An ultrasound emitting transducer (6× 6× 0· 62 mm) was inserted directly into the HL-60 cell line suspension (3· 0× 10 6 cells/mL). Cells were sonicated with continuous wave ultrasound (255 kHz) in the presence of the photosensitive drug merocyanine 540 (MC 540: 15 μg/mL) at an intensity of 0· 4 W/cm
