Summary

This small pilot study is testing whether repeated sessions of low-intensity focused ultrasound can safely reduce seizures in people with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy. Ten adults who still have seizures despite trying at least two medications will receive the ultrasound treatment. The goal is to see if the treatment is well-tolerated and can lower seizure frequency.
