Safety study using brain mapping with focused ultrasound
This study tests the safety of a brain stimulation approach that uses special brain recording and “focused ultrasound” targeted by brain signals. It is designed for healthy adults and checks whether the procedure is tolerated without serious side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses a special kind of ultrasound and MRI scans to check safety and see how the brain responds. It may help researchers understand the possible mechanism of this treatment, but it is designed for people who are healthy and can complete the full visit schedule.
This study tests whether a focused ultrasound technique can create a temporary blind spot in the vision. Researchers hope this will help them find the right ultrasound dose for each person, with the goal of treating certain brain conditions.
This study uses focused ultrasound (sound waves) to gently stimulate the parts of the brain that process what you see and hear. It aims to understand how ultrasound can safely affect brain activity in healthy adults.
This research study uses focused ultrasound waves combined with brain electrodes (already implanted for your epilepsy or psychiatric treatment) to map how your brain responds. The goal is to better understand brain function and potentially improve future treatments.
This study tests a new way to use gentle electrical stimulation on the brain (called tES) to see how it affects brain activity. It aims to help develop better treatments for brain conditions, but it is only for healthy young adults.
This study tests whether a focused ultrasound treatment is safe for children and young adults who have a non-cancerous (benign) tumor in the center of the brain. It mainly checks safety, and it also includes monitoring before and during treatment to reduce risks like bleeding or imaging-related problems.
