Ultrasound Technique Could Help Restore Memory Of Alzheimer's Patients: Study

A new treatment for Alzheimer's disease could use ultrasound to clear toxic plaque in the human brain, a study conducted by researchers from the University of Queensland has shown. The researchers have created a non-invasive method using ultrasound for removing neurotoxic amyloid plaques, structures that are responsible for cognitive failure and memory loss, observed in Alzheimer's patients.
