Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation to Enhance Cognition in Healthy Participants

Sponsor: University of Nottingham

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study examines the impact of theta-burst transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) on cognitive performance in healthy participants, specifically focusing on both acute and post-stimulation effects on visual working memory (vWM). The investigation will compare TUS effects across targeted deep cortical and subcortical brain regions involved in cognitive processing. Neurophysiological changes following stimulation will be assessed using EEG, providing insight into tFUS-induced modulations in working memory-related brain activity.
