## Abstract MRIβguided focused ultrasound was tested in the brains of rhesus monkeys. Locations up to 4.8 cm deep were targeted. Focal heating was observed in all cases with MRIβderived temperature imaging. Subthreshold heating was observed at the focus when the ultrasound beam was targeted with lo
## Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate a potential technique for imageβguided minimally invasive neurosurgical interventions. Focused ultrasound (FUS) delivers thermal energy without an invasive probe, penetrating the dura mater, entering through the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space, o
