Ultrasound brain stimulation for improving arm and leg movement after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a painless, non-invasive ultrasound treatment that stimulates the brain to help improve arm and leg movement after a stroke. It aims to see if this treatment can help people recover more function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke for the first time
- You have weakness on one side of your body (arm or leg)
- Your stroke happened between 3 weeks and 6 months ago
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You can have an MRI scan (no metal implants, pacemakers, or cochlear implants)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help improve arm and leg movement after a stroke. You will receive magnetic pulses to specific brain areas, which may help your brain rewire and recover motor function.
This study tests a new way to combine brain stimulation with guided hand and arm exercises to help improve movement after a stroke. The treatment is personalized to your brain activity and may help you regain more use of your affected arm.
This study tests a new non-invasive therapy using low-intensity focused ultrasound to stimulate the brain area affected by a stroke, which may help improve arm weakness in people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago.
This study tests if focused ultrasound (a noninvasive sound wave therapy) can help improve arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. It is for people whose stroke occurred within the last three months and who still have some arm weakness.
This study tests if low-intensity ultrasound can safely change brain activity patterns in people with movement disorders like Parkinson's. You may be eligible if you already have a special brain implant that can record brain signals.
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation to help people with arm weakness after a stroke improve their movement and daily function.
