🧠Excited to share our latest ultrasound & neurotech paper @natureportfolio.nature.com

🦾 Our previous papers demonstrated the HOW of an ultrasonic brain-machine interface in monkeys and humans. This paper highlights WHY it works.

Ultrasound reveals vascular details with microbubbles A touch of the button is all it takes to improve the resolution of ultrasound images fivefold. This is down to bubbles floating in the bloodstream and a clever algorithm.

Microbubbles in a regular #contrast agent allows for #ultrasound imaging of the finest details of #vascular structures. This is the working principle of ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM), a technique developed at 🇩🇪 @ruhr-uni-bochum.de.
