LIMITLESS: Exablate Focused Ultrasound for NSCLC Brain Metastases - Clinical Trial
¿Cuál es el Propósito de este estudio?
If you decide to be part of the study, here's what will happen:
- You'll get check-ups and blood tests.
- Doctors will take pictures of your brain using special machines called CT or MRI.

¿Qué Implica?
Scientists are doing a study to see if a special treatment called Exablate can help medicine get into brain tumors more easily. They are testing this on people who have lung cancer that has spread to their brain. The goal is to find out if this makes their medicine work better, especially when they are already getting a type of treatment called immune therapy.
