Transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation: A registry-based analysis of global clinical trials
TUS clinical research is expanding rapidly but remains heterogeneous in design, targets, and device reporting. Enhanced transparency in trial registration and parameter documentation will facilitate the development of stronger study designs and encourage the field to direct its efforts toward understudied areas.
