Non-invasive, low intensity focused ultrasound is an emerging neuromodulation technique that offers the potential for precision, personalized therapy. An increasing body of research has identified mechanosensitive ion channels that can be modulated by FUS and support acute electrical activity in neurons. However, neuromodulatory effects that persist from hours to days have also been reported.

- Recurrent dizziness and vertigo can stem from conditions like vestibular migraine (VM) or vestibular neuritis/labyrinthitis (VN/L), which may present similar symptoms and require thorough evaluation for accurate diagnosis.
- A study analyzed the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex Time Constants (VORT) using rotary chair testing in 68 patients diagnosed with either VM or VN/L to aid in differentiating between these two conditions.
- Results indicated that patients with VM had significantly higher VORTs compared to those with VN/L, suggesting that VORT measurements can be a valuable tool in diagnosing central versus peripheral vestibular issues.
Background: Frailty is associated with worse outcomes across a variety of neurosurgical diseases. However, its effect on acute subdural hemorrhage (aSDH) outcomes is unclear. The goal of this study is to compare 3 measures of frailty with the gold standard (i.
