Clinical Trial: Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation for Tourette Syndrome

U.S., July 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07699783) titled 'Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation for Tourette Syndrome' on June 08.

Brief Summary: This is a phase 1 clinical trial investigating the use of low-energy Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation (TUS) to treat Tourette Syndrome (TS).

Objectives and Background. TS is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by motor and vocal tics that often resist standard pharmacological or behavioral treatments. Current neuromodulation options like Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) are invasive, while non-invasive methods like TMS lack the precision to reach deep brain structures.

The study aims to:

1. Evaluate tolerability: Assess TUS safety in older adol...
