Focused Ultrasound

Focused Ultrasound (FUS) is a revolutionary technology that is making an important, growing impact on research innovation in healthcare. At Verasonics, we offer state-of-the-art Vantage System solutions that are designed to help scientists and researchers unleash the full potential of FUS.

What is FUS?

FUS is a non-invasive therapeutic technology that uses high-frequency sound waves to affect specific tissues with pinpoint accuracy. Research using FUS is already revolutionizing the treatment of some cancers, neurological disorders, and chronic pain.

How does FUS work?

FUS works by concentrating high-frequency sound waves into a specific location inside the body. These sound waves create precise thermal or mechanical energy that can stimulate immune response, suppress nerve signals, and, at high power, can destroy targeted tissue without harming surrounding healthy tissue. This therapy can be done using our programmable Vantage Systems which provide extreme flexibility and control to advance research into many areas of FUS.

Vantage Research Ultrasound Systems and FUS research

Verasonics solutions provide the ability to perform research on Ultrasound-guided Focused Ultrasound (USgFUS) techniques that are faster, less expensive, and more versatile than competing techniques that require MRI for guidance.

Vantage Systems offer the ability to interleave imaging with therapy pulses to guide and monitor treatment using the same system. A wide range of power output levels provide flexibility for investigation into many therapeutic approaches, plus these solutions offer a range of channel options that give the user flexibility to utilize a wide range of transducers for convenient optimization of USgFUS.

Finally, Verasonics has solved many of the basic problems researchers face when assembling a USgFUS kit for their work, allowing focus on study goals instead of product acquisition and configuration. These are the benefits that Verasonics brings to FUS.
