Foundation-funded researchers can now quickly access Bracco's SonoVue microbubbles at a fixed price.

Results from the world's first Phase 1 clinical trial to employ high-intensity focused ultrasound in twin-twin transfusion syndrome have now been published.

Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) constitutes a significant global health burden, characterized by a vicious cycle of hypertension and progressive renal decline. Autonomic imbalance, specifically sympathetic overactivity and parasympathetic withdrawal, is increasingly recognized as a central driver of this pathophysiology, interacting with traditional hemodynamic factors such as RAAS acti…

Breaking the Skull Barrier: How do you monitor ultrasound brain therapy when skull bone blocks the signal? Researchers use the "Parametric Array" effect to generate low-freq "messenger waves" inside the brain that slip right through. Real-time, non-invasive monitoring is here! #FUS #Acoustics #GeorgiaTech The post Breaking the Skull Barrier: “Listening” to Ultrasound Therapy Inside the Brain firs…

ISTU 2025 featured a strong focus on neuromodulation, with numerous presentations covering preclinical and clinical developments.

Challenges Quanscient Allsolve can address High-fidelity ultrasound and HIFU demand high frequencies and intense power. Balancing acoustic output with thermal management and patient safety limits is a constant battle in transducer design. The shift to Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) forces packing massive transducer arrays into tiny housings. Predicting acoustic cross-talk and thermal build-up i…

On November 19, the UK Focused Ultrasound Foundation (UK FUSF) hosted an awareness event, called “Saving Children’s Lives with Sound,” to advance focused ultrasound research for critically ill infants and children.

Ep16 - Treating Advanced Breast Cancer with Noninvasive Focused Ultrasound and Radiation

In medicine, high-frequency ultrasound (US) from I to 10 MHz is used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Acoustic waves emitted by high-frequency US are standing waves, which have a limited penetration depth into the body, so external tissues are more affected by high-frequency US than internal organs. The peculiarity of standing acoustic waves is […]
