Noninvasive neuromodulation and thalamic mapping with low-intensity focused ultrasound [PDF]
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2018 OBJECTIVEUltrasound can be precisely focused through the intact human skull to target deep regions of the brain for stereotactic ablations. Acoustic energy at much lower intensities is capable of both exciting and inhibiting neural tissues without causing tissue heating or damage.
