Transcranial focused ultrasound-induced blood‒brain barrier opening in mice without shaving hairs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Acoustic coupling through hairs remains a challenge to performing transcranial-focused ultrasound procedures. Here, we demonstrated that this challenge could be addressed by using oil as the coupling medium, leveraging oil's high affinity to hairs due to

Transcranial Color‐Coded Duplex Sonography in Large‐Vessel Vasculitis Compatible With Takayasu Arteritis Presenting Intracranial Involvement and Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

Focused Ultrasound-Induced Neurogenesis Requires an Increase in Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Transcranial focused ultrasound technology used to transiently open the blood-brain barrier, is capable of stimulating hippocampal neurogenesis; however, it is not yet known what aspects of the treatment are necessary for enhanced neurogenesis to occur ...

Neuromodulation with single‐element transcranial focused ultrasound in human thalamus [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, 2018
AbstractTranscranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) has proven capable of stimulating cortical tissue in humans. tFUS confers high spatial resolutions with deep focal lengths and as such, has the potential to noninvasively modulate neural targets deep to the cortex in humans.

Therapeutic effects of low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation on ischemic stroke in rats: An in vivo evaluation using electrical impedance tomography

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Although previous studies have demonstrated that transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation protects the ischemic brain, clear criteria for the stimulation time window and intensity are lacking.

Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on pain and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of this systematic review and meta‐analysis is to determine the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) on pain (considering the different types of pain measured) and function in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Safety of transcranial focused ultrasound for human neuromodulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Abstract Background Low intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a new method of non-invasive neuromodulation that uses acoustic energy to affect neuronal excitability. tFUS offers high spatial resolution and adjustable focal lengths for precise neuromodulation of discrete regions in the ...

Research Review: A scoping review exploring the needs, barriers, and facilitators to the collection of biological data in adolescence for mental health research

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background There is increasing recognition of the challenge of representativeness in data, including economic, social, and ethnic diversity, in biological mental health research. This is a particular challenge in adolescence, where brain and body development are impacted by the environment.

All Is Relative—A Call for Considering “Physiologically Informed” Control Conditions to Improve the Mechanistic Understanding of the Effects of Physical Exercise on Cognition

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that drive the benefits of physical exercise on cognitive performance. A key element for a better understanding of a particular phenomenon (e.g., the mediators of the exercise‐cognition interaction) is the selection of an appropriate control condition/group as the basis for causal ...
