Abstract:During transcranial focused ultrasound (FUS) procedures, accurate targeting is important and neuronavigation with optically tracked tools is used to estimate the free-field focal location on pre-acquired images. Offline neuronavigation systems do not typically incorporate aberrating effects of the skull known to displace and distort the focus. Here, we developed a pipeline that integrated patient-specific acoustic simulations informed by transformations from optically tracked FUS procedures as a tool to evalua… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
