Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Pulsation Suppresses Pentylenetetrazol Induced Epilepsy In Vivo

ConclusionOur results suggest that pulsed FUS exposure effectively suppresses epileptic spikes in an acute epilepsy animal model, and finds that ultrasound pulsation interferes with neuronal activity and affects the PTZ-induced PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway, which might help explain the mechanism underlying ultrasound-related epileptic spike control.
