NCT ID NCT06232629
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study explores whether low-intensity ultrasound can safely and precisely stimulate deep brain regions involved in Parkinson's disease and dystonia. Ten adults who already have deep brain stimulation (DBS) implants will receive ultrasound pulses while their DBS is off. Researchers will monitor brain signals and any side effects to learn how ultrasound compares to standard DBS.
