Transcranial Focused Ultrasound (tFUS) and Transcranial Unfocused Ultrasound (tUS) Neuromodulation: From Theoretical Principles to Stimulation Practices [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Transcranial focused ultrasound is an emerging technique for non-invasive neurostimulation. Compared to magnetic or electric non-invasive brain stimulation, this technique has a higher spatial resolution and can reach deep structures.

Non-invasive suppression of the human nucleus accumbens (NAc) with transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) modulates the reward network: a pilot study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
BackgroundThe nucleus accumbens (NAc) is a key node of the brain reward circuit driving reward-related behavior. Dysregulation of NAc has been demonstrated to contribute to pathological markers of addiction in substance use disorder (SUD) making it a ...

Cell-type-specific bidirectional modulation of the cortico–thalamo–cortical sensory pathway by transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS)

Brain Stimulation
Introduction: Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) can noninvasively modulate sensory pathways, but the cell-type-specific mechanisms underlying excitatory or inhibitory effects remain unclear. Here, we investigate how tFUS applied to the somatosensory

Systematic Review of Phase Aberration Correction Algorithms for Transcranial Focused Ultrasound

iRADIOLOGY
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is an emerging modality with strong potential for non‐invasively treating brain disorders. However, the inhomogeneity and complex structure of the skull induce substantial phase aberrations and pressure attenuation;
