Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation Improves Neurorehabilitation after Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesAging and disease, 2021
Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) regulates neural activity in different brain regions in humans and animals. However, the role of ultrasound stimulation in modulating neural activity and promoting neurorehabilitation in the ischemic brain is largely unknown.

Modulation of Human Brain Functional Connectivity with Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation

2025 47th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC)
Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) is being increasingly investigated as a non-invasive approach to interrogate brain circuits and treat psychiatric disorders marked by aberrant brain activity. However, the mechanisms of tFUS, as well as its effects on large-scale brain networks, remain unclear.

Improved Target Specificity of Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation (TFUS) using Double-Crossed Ultrasound Transducers

2018 40th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2018
Ultrasound neuromodulation is a promising stimulation modality because of its non-invasiveness, focusing and steering capability, and relatively high spatial resolution compared to the other stimulation modalities. However, despite the high lateral resolution, the ultrasound beam in the axial direction is relatively long, especially when compared to ...

A novel numerical approach to stimulation of a specific brain region using transcranial focused ultrasound

2018 40th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2018
One of the biggest challenges associated with transcranial application of focused ultrasound is the presence of skull in wave propagation resulting in the attenuation and diffraction of sound waves, which leads to disruption and shifting of the acoustic focus in the brain.

Periodic and Aperiodic Neural Responses to Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation: An EEG Investigation

2025 47th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC)
Transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) is an emerging neuromodulation technique with promising therapeutic potential, while our understanding about its fundamental neurophysiological effects is still rudimentary. This study investigated the complex dynamics of both periodic oscillations and aperiodic neural activity induced by TUS in 22 healthy ...

Development of a Wearable Robotic Positioning System for Noninvasive Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation

IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2016
Transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation has been attracting more and more interest from researchers as a novel modality for brain stimulation. Typical manual positioning for brain stimulation requires the patient to sit still during stimulation for extended periods and readily loses its positioning accuracy if the patient moves.

Cerebellum-Targeted Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation Modulates Hippocampus Neural Activities

Abstract Low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) has recently emerged as a promising neuromodulation technique due to its non-invasive nature, ability to penetrate deeply, and high spatial resolution. On the other hand, the cerebellum has attracted new interest as a target for neuromodulation.
