One of the most important ways focused ultrasound works in the body is by temporarily and reversibly opening the blood-brain barrier (BBB). By modulating the BBB with focused ultrasound, researchers are opening new possibilities for treating conditions like brain tumors,

Our clinical trial on focused ultrasound PTT for Parkinson’s disease has just been publishedšŸ“•PTT is undeniably a viable alternative to GPi. However, bilateral lesioning is not yet recommended due to unresolved safety concerns. #focused #ultrasound #PTT …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…
