Brain tumors are particularly challenging malignancies, due to their location in a structurally and functionally distinct part of the human body–the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS …
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a promising neuromodulation technique, but its mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesize that if tFUS parameters exhibit distinct …

Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) has proven capable of stimulating cortical tissue in humans. tFUS confers high spatial resolutions with deep focal lengths and as such, has the …
Transcranial focused ultrasound is an emerging technique for non-invasive neurostimulation. Compared to magnetic or electric non-invasive brain stimulation, this …
Focused ultrasound surgery (FUS) is a noninvasive image-guided therapy and an alternative to surgical interventions. It presents an opportunity to revolutionize cancer …
Computational models of acoustic wave propagation are frequently used in transcranial ultrasound therapy, for example, to calculate the intracranial pressure field or to calculate …
Clinical trials have shown that hyperthermia (HT), ie an increase of tissue temperature to 39– 44° C, significantly enhance radiotherapy and chemotherapy effectiveness [1]. Driven by the …
