Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a promising neuromodulation technique, but its mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesize that if tFUS parameters exhibit distinct modulation effects in different neuron populations, then the mechanism can be unde
MR acoustic radiation force imaging (MR ARFI) is one such alternative for determining focal spot position and intensity, however, it is not currently utilized during treatments due to low signal to noise ratio when used with the InSightec Exablate transducer. Without reliable focal spot monitoring ...

Intensity values were confirmed by radiation force balance measurements. Using targeting images, approximately 20 foci in the LV and septum were treated with pFUS using the following US parameters: pulse length, 10 ms; duty cycle, < 1%; 100 pulses/site (Fig. 1d). Prior to pFUS, animals ...
Magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound was suggested for the induction of deep localized hyperthermia adjuvant to radiation- or chemotherapy. In this study we are aiming to validate an experimental model for the induction of uniform temperature ele
I was diagnosed with ER PR positive stage 4 breast cancer, and advised to have surgery within 2 days, chemo and radiation. I went to a 2nd oncologist who conned me into tamoxifen for 6 months which put me into chemical menopause. He then told me I still needed cut poison and burn and...
The prevalence and impact of imaging findings detected during screening procedures in patients undergoing transcranial MR-guided Focused Ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) thalamotomy for functional neurological disorders has not been assessed yet. This study include
