Abstract
Non-invasive ultrasound neuromodulation has experienced exponential growth in the neuroscientific literature, recently also including clinical studies and applications. However, clinical recommendations for the secure and effective application of ultrasound neuromodulation in pathological brains are currently lacking. Here, clinical experts with neuroscientific expertise in clinical brain stimulation and ultrasound neuromodulation present initial clinical recommendations for ultrasound neuromodulation with relevance for all ultrasound neuromodulation techniques. The recommendations start with methodological safety issues focusing on technical issues to avoid harm to the brain. This is followed by clinical safety issues focusing on important factors concerning pathological situations.
期刊介绍:
Brain Stimulation publishes on the entire field of brain stimulation, including noninvasive and invasive techniques and technologies that alter brain function through the use of electrical, magnetic, radiowave, or focally targeted pharmacologic stimulation.
Brain Stimulation aims to be the premier journal for publication of original research in the field of neuromodulation. The journal includes: a) Original articles; b) Short Communications; c) Invited and original reviews; d) Technology and methodological perspectives (reviews of new devices, description of new methods, etc.); and e) Letters to the Editor. Special issues of the journal will be considered based on scientific merit.
