    摘要: A bidirectional self-healing neural interface includes a first elastic substrate; a neural electrode disposed on the first elastic substrate and comprising a conductive polymer composite; and a second elastic substrate disposed on the neural electrode. The conductive polymer composite includes a matrix formed of a self-healing polymer material; and a plurality of electrical conductor clusters distributed in the matrix. Each of the electrical conductor clusters includes particles of a first electrical conductor; and a plurality of particles of a second electrical conductor formed of the same material as that of the first electrical conductor, distributed around each of the particles of the first electrical conductor, and having sizes that are smaller than those of the particles of the first electrical conductor. The first electrical conductor is a source for generating the second electrical conductor. The neural interface has excellent elasticity, electrical conductivity that is improved by deformation, and is self-healing.

    摘要: According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided a completely new type of 3-dimensional (3D) printing method for producing an object by focusing ultrasound onto material that changes in state by stimulation to solidify it into a desired shape. The method for 3D printing according to an embodiment includes providing material which changes in state by stimulation, setting a target focal point in the material, focusing ultrasound onto the target focal point using at least one ultrasound transducer, and applying stimulation to the material using the focused ultrasound to induce a change in state of the material. According to the embodiments, it is possible to control the precision of the output by controlling the frequency of the ultrasound transducer or the size of the target focal point on system.

    摘要: A guide framework for positioning an ultrasonic transducer which emits a focused ultrasound to a target point in carrying out surgery to apply ultrasonic stimulation to a subject's brain, includes a body in a shape of a mask that is laid on the subject's face, and a positioning hole formed through an inner surface and an outer surface of the mask body, the positioning hole into which the ultrasonic transducer is inserted, wherein the inner surface of the mask body is formed to conform a facial contour of the subject, and when the guide framework is laid on the subject's face and the ultrasonic transducer is disposed at the positioning hole, the position of the target point is naturally disposed at a preset stimulation site of the brain. An ultrasonic stimulation device includes an ultrasonic transducer and the guide framework for positioning the ultrasonic transducer.

    摘要: Disclosed is a liver tumor-targeting ultrasound contrast agent. The ultrasound contrast agent includes a gas-generating core and a hyaluronic acid shell. The ultrasound contrast agent can be specifically delivered to liver cells. This specific delivery enables easy differentiation between normal liver cells and liver tumor cells by ultrasound imaging. In addition, the ultrasound contrast agent is highly stable in aqueous condition and causes no cytotoxicity. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the ultrasound contrast agent.
