I have a close family member who has ALS. I was reading about a therapy that called Focused Ultrasound that currently is being used for Parkinsons Disease and other diseases. I would like to know if any ALS patients did this treatment and what the results were, and where the treatment was performed.
Thank you.
 
It is not a treatment in itself. It is a means of getting treatments into the brain more reliably than we can now -- like cracking open a door to let someone in and then closing it because it's too dangerous to leave open. Further trials using treatment(s) TBD will be forthcoming in the future but are still in planning atm.
 
Hi Igelb,
Thank you for your reply. I read the trial results and understood that to be the case. I appreciate your confirmation of this.
