RK-50:台式聚焦超声系统

Bench-top focused ultrasound


这一聚焦超声系统能够完成定向大脑暴露(开放血脑屏障),而不需要并发的成像。

RK-50是独立的能型临床前系统,可以利用聚焦超声的各种用途。通过传统的立体定位方法的使用,RK-50能够透过啮齿类动物大脑的头盖骨向细小的结构发射精确剂量的聚焦超声。该系统还能够自动栅格化一系列聚焦超声来覆盖任意大小的体积。其应用包括切除、血脑屏障毁坏和神经调制。


The focused ultrasound system that enables targeted brain exposures without the need for concurrent imaging.
The RK-50 is a stand-alone, versatile, preclinical system designed to take advantage of the various applications of focused ultrasound. Through the use of traditional stereotaxic targeting methods, the RK-50 can deliver precise doses of FUS through an intact skull to small structures in the rodent brain. The system can also be used to automatically raster a series of FUS exposures to cover an arbitrary volume. Applications include ablation, blood-brain barrier disruption, and neuromodulation.
Specifications:
  • Precise, fast targeting with 3-axis positioning system
  • Treatment planning software facilitates stereotaxic-guided target selection and exposure control (runs on included PC)
  • Multi-point targeting is achievable in line, raster, and circular exposures
  • Focused ultrasound dose settings can be easily controlled for any application
  • Utilizes calibrated focused ultrasound transducers, available in a range of frequencies
  • Studies using FUS Instruments’ Systems
