3D-printed adaptive acoustic lens as a disruptive technology for transcranial ultrasound therapy using single-element transducers

The development of multi-element arrays for better control of the shape of ultrasonic beams has opened the way for focusing through highly aberrating media, such as the human skull. As a result, the use of brain therapy with transcranial-focused ultrasound has rapidly grown. Although effective, such...
