NEW ULTRASOUND HELMET REACHES DEEP INSIDE THE BRAIN WITHOUT SURGERY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Researchers have created an ultrasound helmet that could offer an alternative to invasive procedures. It can modulate deep-brain circuits without surgery with unrivaled precision. The helmet offers a safe, reversible, and repeatable method for both understanding brain function and developing targeted therapies. It has potential clinical applications for neurological disorders like Parkinson's disease, where deep-brain regions are especially affected.
