How do you propose to solve the “rigid skull” problem (footnote 2 in the post)? Most people like having theirs intact during diagnostic imaging.

I await clinical use of this with bated breath…

That's cool. Ultrasound imaging should be much more broadly available, like household object next to your toothbrush. I wonder how OpenWater open-source focused ultrasound stimulation is doing.

I've recently built my own ultrasound machine at home with only the probe being an ebay buy from a previously working machine.

I've gotta get on writing an article about it one day!

Please do! That makes me wonder how hard it would be to make a probe.

Very interesting, great write up, and awesome blog in general!

I never got to invest serious time in this idea, but MMW: trimodal EEG+fNIRS+fUSI dry headsets are going to change everything. Each technique has its strengths, and there are already people hacking together trimodal prototypes as we speak.
