Our mission

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) acts as a critical defense mechanism against harmful substances. However, this selectivity also impedes the delivery of therapeutic agents to the brain, a significant challenge in treating neurological disorders.

TheraSonic non-invasive device transiently disrupts the BBB using low-intensity focused ultrasound which facilitates the delivery of therapeutics at targeted locations in the brain.
