Comparison of four modes of ultrasound for sonoporation. Cells treated with continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound yielded the largest amount of HGF protein indicating this to be the most effective ultrasound mode. CFD: color flow Doppler; PWD: pulsed wave Doppler; CWD: continuous wave Doppler; Harmonic: harmonic power Doppler. * versus DNA alone; ** versus CFD; *** versus PWD; versus Harmonic.
