Abstract
A method for delivering ultrasound energy to a patient's intracranial space includes forming at least one aperture in the patient's skull, introducing at least one acoustically conductive medium into the intracranial space to contact brain tissue of the patient, advancing an ultrasound device at least partially through the aperture in the skull, and transmitting ultrasound energy to the intracranial space, using the ultrasound device. In some embodiments, the acoustically conductive medium may be cooled to help regulate the temperature of the patient's brain tissue.
