Paul Brest Hall, Munger Bldg 4, Stanford
Overview:
Ultrasound neuromodulation has the promise of non-invasive stimulation with high focality. However, much research needs to be done to make this a reality. We are just at the point of early clinical trials. Unfortunately, publications times can be slow, such that clinicians designing early clinical trials may not have the most up to date knowledge of recent progress in the field. The FUN23 conference aims to address this gap by providing a forum for communication between the different groups working in ultrasound neuromodulation. FUN23 CE activities are designed to educate clinicians performing early clinical trials of FUS neuromodulation about the basic science and engineering underlying its use, so that they can design safe, effective, and reproducible clinical trials to accelerate the clinical translation of this technology.
New research is revealing basic principles of the neuronal response to ultrasound.
- Clinicians need to understand the principles underlying this technology and understand the role of advanced imaging in evaluating the efficacy of interventions.
- Clinicians need to be able to define safe and effective stimulation parameters, and develop reliable methods for monitoring its effects.
- Clinicians need to be able to utilize new devices for human FUS neuromodulation.
CE Objectives:
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
- Describe the medical physics of ultrasound neuromodulation and current neuroscience theories about its underlying mechanism(s)
- Interpret the latest publications in the field to improve the design of early clinical trials in ultrasound neuromodulation
- Modify parameters for ultrasound neuromodulation to reflect current best practices with respect to safety and efficacy and confounds
- Discuss developments in modeling, guiding, and measuring simulation and how they might apply to the design of early clinical trials
- List the quality control methods and measures necessary to ensure the safe, reliable, and reproducible application of ultrasound neuromodulation
Target Audience:
Specialties- Biomedical Imaging, Medical Physics
