Ultrasound through translucent skull implant trial
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial uses a special clear implant in the skull to take ultrasound images of the brain. It may help doctors monitor patients after surgery without extra radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a specific type of skull implant called a sonolucent cranioplasty as part of your regular care.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You are willing to follow the study schedule and attend all visits.
- You can provide signed consent to participate.
- You are not pregnant.

This trial tests a special 3D bone graft material to repair skull defects after brain surgery. It may help people who need a strong, custom-fit implant to protect their brain.
This trial studies whether a special form of ultrasound through the skull can improve recovery after a spontaneous brain bleed that requires minimally invasive surgery. It may help by targeting the damaged brain tissue after evacuation, and the study will follow participants for up to a year.
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 uses a special ultrasound test to see how blood flow in the brain changes after you have surgery to replace a piece of your skull with a PEEK implant. It may help doctors understand if the surgery affects blood flow.
This study checks whether a special, painless ultrasound technique can help measure a brain tumor during planned brain surgery. It may help doctors understand tumor location and behavior more accurately while you’re already in the operating room.
This trial uses focused ultrasound to gently stimulate parts of the brain while you are under sedation. It aims to understand how this technology affects brain activity and could lead to new ways to treat brain disorders without surgery.
