The effect of Transcranial Ultrasound Pulse Repetition Frequency on Sustained Inhibition in the Human Primary Motor Cortex: A Double-Blind, Sham-Controlled Study
Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation hold promise for inducing brain plasticity. However, their limited precision may hamper certain applications. In contrast, Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation (TUS), known for its precision and deep brain targeting capabilities, requires further investigation to establish its efficacy in producing enduring effects for treating neurological and psychiatric disorders.
