No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Focused ultrasound at low intensities is a form of neuromodulation with high spatial resolution that can be applied invasively or non-invasively using acoustic energy to affect neuronal activity. The purpose of this study is to better understand the effects of low intensity focused ultrasound (FUS) on the central nervous system. Specific patient populations within UVA health system are undergoing treatment that provide unique opportunities to study these effects.
