Advances in the use of focused ultrasound to treat Parkinson’s disease

Temporal interference stimulation (TIS) is a groundbreaking, non-invasive method of brain stimulation that can reach deeper regions of the brain without affecting surrounding tissue. This technique, first developed by Grossman and colleagues, uses two high-frequency electrical signals, in the kilohertz range, that overlap in the target area to create low-frequency interference. This low-frequency interference can then stimulate specific regions of the brain.
