The mechanism and application prospect of low-intensity focused ultrasound in neuromodulation
The proposal of the Brain Science Project has made brain-related research a hot topic,and its related neuromodulation is a frontier and hot topic of current research.Compared with traditional neuromodulation methods,Low Intensity Focused Ultrasound(LIFU),as an emerging neuromodulation technology,has the advantages of non-invasive,reversible,and targetable deep brain structures.It has been extensively studied by scholars at home and abroad.However,the specific mechanism of LIFU neuromodulation is not very clear,and the clarification of the mechanism has guiding significance for its application in related fields.This article briefly summarizes the research progress on the mechanism of LIFU neural modulation in recent years,and briefly outlines the application of ultrasound in the nervous system,aiming to provide references for the subsequent basic and clinical research on ultrasound neural modulation.
