Abstrakt: A new report from researchers at North Carolina State University (NC State) discusses the use of ultrasound to disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and enhance drug delivery to the central nervous system. The review explores the principles and mechanisms of ultrasound-based techniques, as well as their applications in treating neurodegenerative diseases and brain tumors. Safety considerations and potential risks associated with ultrasound exposure are also addressed. The research highlights significant successes in the field and provides insight into future directions. The study was supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the United States.
