From regulatory mechanisms to cutting‐edge applications: Research progress of ultrasound, electrical, magnetic, and optical stimulation in neural modulation

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 196-219, September 2026.
Abstract In recent years, the clinical treatment and symptom management of neurological disorders have faced significant challenges due to the high complexity of the nervous system's structure and function. Against this backdrop, physical stimulation techniques have emerged as a vital complementary approach to traditional pharmacological treatments and

Offline impact of transcranial focused ultrasound on cortical activation in primates

open access: yeseLife, 2018
To understand brain circuits it is necessary both to record and manipulate their activity. Transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) is a promising non-invasive brain stimulation technique. To date, investigations report short-lived neuromodulatory effects, but to deliver on its full potential for research and therapy, ultrasound protocols are required

The Range of Examinations and Roles Performed by Sonographers in Australia and New Zealand: What Does It Mean for a Profession‐Based Career Framework?

open access: yesSonography, Volume 13, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Many sonographers in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) do not work within an institutional career framework, have no or limited progression opportunities, or are unsure how to progress their careers. This may limit professional growth and advancement.

Focused Ultrasound‐Induced Mechanical Ablation Affects the Carbohydrate Metabolism of Residual/Peri‐Focally Localized Glioblastoma Cells

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 4, Page 1005-1016, 15 August 2026.
Glioblastoma (GBM) is highly aggressive and therapy‐resistant, warranting exploration of novel treatment strategies, among them mechanical high‐intensity focused ultrasound (mFUS), which holds significant promise for tumor ablation. The present study examined mFUS‐induced changes specifically in carbohydrate metabolism, which affects vulnerability to ...

Menopausal insomnia as a modifiable node of dementia risk: Mechanistic insights and intervention strategies

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The menopausal transition is often accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms such as sleep disturbances, representing a modifiable window for Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) prevention. Current preventive strategies fail to address the heterogeneity of postmenopausal cognitive trajectories, where some women exhibit rapid ...
