    Abstract: A system includes: a form factor device sized and shaped to accommodate a subject's skull; an ultrasound array comprising a plurality of transducer elements attached to the form factor device, wherein the plurality of transducer elements are configured to: emit ultrasound pulses through the subject's skull for performing a neuro-modulation of the subject's brain during use of the system, and receive ultrasound signals from the subject's skull and brain in response to the ultrasound pulses being emitted; and a controller coupled to the ultrasound array, wherein the controller is configured, during use of the system, to: generate at least one image depicting at least a portion of the subject's skull and brain based on, at least in part, the received ultrasound signals received, and adapt the neuro-modulation of the subject's brain based on, at least in part, the at least one image during use of the system.

    Abstract: A system includes: an ultrasound array comprising a plurality of transducer elements, wherein: a first subset of the plurality of transducer elements are configured to emit ultrasound pulses through the subject's skull for performing a neuro-modulation of the subject's brain, and a second subset of the plurality of transducer elements are configured to receive ultrasound signals from the subject's skull and brain in response to the ultrasound pulses being emitted from the first subset of the plurality of transducer elements; and a controller coupled to the ultrasound array, wherein the controller is configured to: generate at least one image depicting at least a portion of the subject's skull and brain based on, at least in part, the ultrasound signals received by the second subset of the plurality of transducer elements, and adapt the neuro-modulation of the subject's brain based on, at least in part, the at least one image.
