    Abstract:

    Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is an emerging form of non-surgical human neuromodulation that confers advantages over existing electro and electromagnetic technologies by providing a superior spatial resolution on the millimeter scale as well as the capability to target sub-cortical structures non-invasively. An examination of the pairing of tFUS and blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional MRI (fMRI) in humans is presented here.
