Sound waves vs. seizures: new hope for kids with epilepsy?
NCT ID NCT07497178
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a non-invasive technique called focused ultrasound can safely treat brain lesions that cause seizures in children with drug-resistant epilepsy. About 20 children aged 4-17 will be followed to see if the treatment reduces seizure frequency and severity, and improves their quality of life. The goal is to find a safer alternative to traditional brain surgery.
