This study shows that combining transcranial focused ultrasound with transcranial electric stimulation induces location-specific cortical activation in resting humans, suggesting tFUS has subthreshold modulatory effects.

This study improves tFUS targeting specificity using a phase-reversal correction method with a random array transducer, showing significant increases in focal overlap and energy delivery.

This study shows that transcranial focused ultrasound can modulate visual thalamus and affect connected cortical areas in a nonhuman primate model.

This study shows that tFUS selectively activates excitatory neurons in the cortico-thalamo-cortical pathway, modulating feedforward and feedback loops between brain regions.

This study investigates cell-type specific effects of tFUS in awake rats, finding that PRF and DC sensitivity persists despite some differences compared to anesthetized conditions.

This paper shows that targeting V5 with transcranial focused ultrasound improves a visual motion BCI task by enhancing feature-based attention through increased theta activity and preserved dorsal pathway connections.

This study shows that transcranial focused ultrasound can modulate activity in the extrastriate visual cortex with subregion specificity when targeting the prefrontal cortex in rhesus macaques.

This study shows tFUS increases neural firing and induces frequency-dependent correlation changes in rat somatosensory cortex neurons.

This study uses transcranial focused ultrasound to enhance voluntary movement-related cortical activity in humans by modulating the movement-related cortical potential.

This study shows tFUS selectively affects excitatory and inhibitory neurons and induces long-term synaptic changes in rats.
