Adaptive transcranial ultrasound Doppler imaging of the brain

This paper introduces an adaptive aberration correction method for transcranial ultrasound Doppler imaging, improving image quality in rats by accounting for skull-induced wave refraction.

Modeling behavior to disentangle motion-related effects in functional ultrasound imaging in awake, head-fixed mice

This paper introduces a behavior-informed modeling framework to account for motion-related confounds in functional ultrasound imaging during naturalistic behaviors in awake mice.

Ultrasound Transparent Neural Interfaces for Multimodal Interaction

This paper develops ultrasound-transparent neural interfaces that enable compatibility with functional ultrasound imaging and therapy, validated through simulations and experiments.

Selective-plane Functional Ultrasound Neuroimaging

Selective-plane functional ultrasound neuroimaging enables high-resolution, low-computational brain activity monitoring by targeting specific brain regions without moving the probe.

Nonlinear sound-sheet microscopy: imaging opaque organs at the capillary and cellular scale

This paper introduces nonlinear sound-sheet microscopy to image opaque organs at the capillary and cellular scale, achieving faster imaging speed, larger volume, and higher resolution than existing biomolecular ultrasound techniques.

Acoustic pH sensor for dynamic ultrasound imaging of cellular acidification

The paper introduces an acoustic pH sensor called pHonon for deep tissue imaging of cellular acidification using nonlinear ultrasound.
