Abstract:
A stimulation apparatus using low intensity focused ultrasound, which has a low intensity ultrasound focusing array having a plurality of transducers for outputting low intensity ultrasound beams, and a fixing device to which the low intensity ultrasound focusing array is attached, the fixing device being configured to fix the low intensity ultrasound focusing array to an upper body of a user. The low intensity ultrasound beams outputted from the transducers are focused to at least one focus. The focus is positioned to a spinal cord of the user or nerves around the spinal cord so that low intensity ultrasound stimulation is applied to the spinal cord or nerve cells of the nerves around the spinal cord.
Abstract:
Provided is an implant having a controlled generation rate of reactive oxygen species and a method of controlling generation of reactive oxygen species using the same. The implant having a controlled generation rate of reactive oxygen species according to the present invention includes a body formed of a metallic material and having a groove, a first filling metal filling one region of the groove, and a second filling metal filling the groove on the first filling metal, wherein the second filling metal has an ionization tendency different from that of the first filling metal.
Abstract:
A nerve probe array has a connector made of a flexible material; and a plurality of probes coupled to the connector, each of the plurality of probe having an electrode formed at a body thereof. The plurality of probes are arranged with intervals in a length direction of the connector, and the connector surrounds an outer circumference of a nerve, and the plurality of probes pierce the outer circumference of the nerve and are inserted into the nerve.
