Focused Ultrasound - Lisa Howe

What is Focused Ultrasound? Early-stage Non-invasive Therapeutic technology  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y73tVVmOjGg

What does that mean? Depending on the design of the lens and the ultrasound parameters, the target can be as small as 1x1.5mm or as large as 10x16mm in diameter.

Effects at focal point Thermal ablation Focal drug delivery Blood-brain barrier opening Immunomodulation Neuromodulation Radiation sensitization Stem cell delivery

Brain Tumors NO CHEMOTHERAPY! NO NORMAL TISSUE DAMAGE!!
