Researchers Develop Wearable Ultrasound Pacemaker for Non-Invasive Heart Rhythm Control

Scientists have created a postage stamp-sized, non-invasive ultrasound pacemaker that adheres to the skin. This device uses sonogenetics to provide real-time imaging and steerable stimulation, as detailed in Nature Biomedical Engineering. It offers a potential new method for treating cardiac arrhythmias without the need for surgical implantation.
