Abstract
With an ever-growing list of neurological applications of focused ultrasound (FUS), there has been a consequent increase in the variety of systems for delivering ultrasound energy to the brain. Specifically, recent successful pilot clinical trials of blood-brain barrier (BBB) opening with FUS have generated substantial interest in the future applications of this relatively novel therapy, with divergent, purpose-built technologies emerging. With many of these technologies at various stages of pre-clinical and clinical investigation, this article seeks to provide an overview and analysis of the numerous medical devices in active use and under development for FUS-mediated BBB opening.
