Effects of Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation on Trigeminal Blink Reflex Excitability

Effects of Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation on Trigeminal Blink Reflex Excitability

Recent evidence indicates that transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) modulates sensorimotor cortex excitability. However, no study has assessed possible TUS effects on the excitability of deeper brain areas, such as the brainstem. In this study, we investigated whether TUS delivered on the subst...
