Changzhu Jin, PhD, who completed summer internships at the Foundation in 2015 and 2016, is the lead author on a recent technical brain program publication.

Dr. Jin and the brain tech team set out to develop such tools. Their final product improved the peak pressure at the focal spot and while only taking 402 milliseconds prior to each sonication to calculate. The resulting software program is accurate enough to be used in a clinical environment and it is free and available for open use.
“This work and its publication were fully supported by the Foundation,” said Dong-Guk Paeng, PhD, the Foundation’s first Merkin Scholar. “I expect it to accelerate Kranion's usage for treatment planning and verification…and Dr. Jin and I have future plans to continue to add tools to this kit.”
