Alzheimers breakthough using ultrasound

No one has mentioned this so I thought I would bring it to everyones' attention.

I sincerely hope this will work for the 350,000 plus sufferers and those yet undiagnosed in Australia.

Hello Radish

Good news

Shows you the benefits of investing in Research

Better than the old electro shock therapy lol.

Come to think of it, wonder if the same will work for mental illness, like depression and bipolar disorder.

 

Denzel, the ultrasound breaks down the build up of plaque in the brain.  I think mental illness etc would be entirely different;  but of course I am no expert.

You are right they are two different things...surprisingly... the electric shock treatment is still used in some instances..but under very different and controlled conditions as compared to yesteryear.

Radish:- Great news. Hope it can help with the disease many people have, and and an early preventative. 

A wonderful breakthrough
