Description
The Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition 2025.Ultrasound is one of the safest tools in medicine. But when we focus it, we can do something extraordinary - treat conditions deep in the brain without a single cut.
Join Dr Tom Gilbertson and Dr Isla Barnard, members of the Focused Energy: Extraordinary Ultrasound main exhibit group, to discover the physics behind MRI-guided focused ultrasound and how this powerful technique is already helping doctors change lives.
Dr Gilbertson and Dr Barnard use focused ultrasound to treat brain conditions without surgery. Combining neurology, imaging, and computational physics, their work explores how sound waves can target deep brain areas, improving movement and decision-making while offering new, non-invasive treatment options for patients with complex neurological disorders.
