Abstract

A TUS (transcranial ultrasound) system with a matrix array transducer in a wearable format is disclosed. The TUS system uses ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) and MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) technologies to achieve power, size, and weight reductions, allowing the device to be worn. In an embodiment, the TUS system can reliably find a target anatomical structure and remain locked onto the target throughout usage. All real-time tasks are controlled locally within the TUS system for a closed-loop operation. Safeguards enable subjects to use the system at home for medical treatment and wellness usage, as well as in a clinic. A method for using the system is disclosed.
