Iconeus One: Pioneering Real-Time Whole-Brain Imaging with Functional Ultrasound – 14 Years of Innovation and Adoption

Functional ultrasound (fUS) imaging, an advanced neuroimaging modality based on ultrafast plane-wave sonography, has transformed our understanding of brain function since its introduction in 2011. With exceptional spatial and temporal resolution, fUS enables precise, real-time mapping of hemodynamic changes, even in conscious subjects.

This webinar explores the diverse applications of fUS, including task-induced activation mapping, resting-state functional connectivity, and in vivo dynamic angiography. We highlight its role as a powerful tool in both fundamental and applied neuroscience, with promising potential for clinical translation. Additionally, we discuss future advancements such as 3D whole-brain imaging and connectivity mapping in mice, and Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM)—a groundbreaking technique for super-resolution vascular imaging, offering deeper insights into neural circuits.

Finally, we introduce Iconeus One, the premier fUS-based imaging platform for neuroscience research. Featuring a fully integrated software suite and powered by ultrafast plane-wave sonography, this cutting-edge platform delivers unparalleled imaging capabilities, making it an indispensable and user-friendly tool for brain function studies across diverse research applications.
