520 |a The emergence of new ultrasound technologies has improved our understanding of the brain functions and offered new opportunities for the treatment of brain diseases. Ultrasound has become a valuable tool in preclinical animal and clinical studies as it not only provides information about the structure and function of brain tissues but can also be used as a therapy alternative for brain diseases. High-resolution cerebral flow images with high sensitivity can be acquired using novel functional ultrasound and super-resolution ultrasound imaging techniques. The noninvasive treatment of essential tremors has been clinically approved and it has been demonstrated that the ultrasound technology can revolutionize the currently existing treatment methods. Microbubble-mediated ultrasound can remotely open the blood-brain barrier enabling targeted drug delivery in the brain. More recently, ultrasound neuromodulation received a great amount of attention due to its noninvasive and deep penetration features and potential therapeutic benefits. This review provides a thorough introduction to the current state-of-the-art research on brain ultrasound and also introduces basic knowledge of brain ultrasound including the acoustic properties of the brain/skull and engineering techniques for ultrasound. Ultrasound is expected to play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and therapy of brain diseases
