Transcranial focused ultrasound neuromodulation of the human primary motor cortex

Scientific Reports, 2018
Transcranial focused ultrasound is an emerging form of non-invasive neuromodulation that uses acoustic energy to affect neuronal excitability. The effect of ultrasound on human motor cortical excitability and behavior is currently unknown.

Lesions Associated With Autism Symptoms Map to a Cerebellar Brain Network in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects 1 in 36 individuals in the United States and is characterized by impaired social communication and restrictive/repetitive behaviors. Individuals with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) have a high incidence of ASD (40%) and exhibit congenital brain lesions (tubers), offering a unique lesion‐based ...

Skull-Mimicking Phantoms With Tunable Properties for Transcranial Ultrasound Imaging

IEEE Access
Non-invasive transcranial ultrasound imaging for older children and adults is constrained by acoustic effects caused by cranial bone in humans. There is very significant acoustic degradation of wave propagation through the cranium, particularly the ...

Offline impact of transcranial focused ultrasound on cortical activation in primates

bioRxiv, 2018
To understand brain circuits it is necessary both to record and manipulate their activity. Transcranial ultrasound (TUS) is a promising non-invasive brain stimulation technique. To date, investigations have focused on short-lived neuromodulatory effects,

Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.

Transcranial sonography in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2012
Transcranial sonography has become a useful tool in the differentialdiagnosis of parkinsonian syndromes. This is a non-invasive, low costprocedure. The main finding on transcranial sonography in patientswith idiopathic Parkinson’s disease is an increased

rTMS Therapy for Eating Disorders: Scoping Review on Efficacy, Safety, Stimulation Parameters and Study Subjects

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has potential as a therapeutic tool for eating disorders. In this scoping review, we examine the efficacy and safety of rTMS therapy for eating disorders besides stimulation parameters and the clinical statuses of participants. Method Following PRISMA‐ScR framework, we searched four
