Ultrasound Gel

Ultrasound gel is an essential coupling medium for TUS applications. This water-based, viscous, and acoustically conductive gel forms an effective interface between the transducer and the scalp, eliminating air gaps and optimising the transmission of acoustic waves into the brain. By ensuring efficient energy transfer, it supports accurate and reliable delivery of targeted stimulation.

Ultrasound gel is essential in neuroscience applications, as it provides a safe, non-invasive interface between the transducer and the body. By reducing the acoustic impedance mismatch between the transducer and the skin, it allows ultrasound waves to pass efficiently into the body and brain tissue. This improved contact ensures that most sound waves penetrate effectively, producing clear, high-quality images and enabling more accurate research and diagnoses in non-invasive neuroscience procedures. Ultrasound gel is safe for all skin types and does not interfere with the body’s natural functions.
