基于功能超声成像的脑机接口技术与应用

Functional Ultrasound Imaging-Based Brain–Computer Interface Technologies and Applications

  • 摘要: 脑机接口(BCI)通过读取脑活动信号实现大脑与外部设备的信息传递,其性能提升受限于神经接口模态在侵入性、空间精度、深度与长期鲁棒性之间的制约。功能超声成像(fUSI)通过高灵敏度捕获神经血管耦合介导的全脑微血流动态,可无创、高分辨地反映局部神经活动,为新一代非侵入式 BCI 读取开辟了新路径。本文以“从脑血流成像到神经解码”为主线,系统综述其信号机制、脑功能检测与表征方法、BCI 读取可行性及核心算法框架的研究进展。目前,fUSI 已成功应用于精细脑功能图谱构建、运动意图解码及自然行为变量解析,展现出强大神经解码潜力。未来发展方向聚焦于三维/四维实时成像、多模态协同融合及自适应在线解码,为高精度闭环无创脑机接口提供新方法。

     

    Abstract: Brain–computer interfaces (BCI) enable information transmission between the brain and external devices by reading brain activity signals. Their performance is constrained by trade-offs among invasiveness, spatial precision, imaging depth, and long-term robustness of neural interface modalities. Functional ultrasound imaging (fUSI) can sensitively capture whole-brain microvascular dynamics mediated by neurovascular coupling, thereby providing a noninvasive and high-resolution readout of local neural activity. It offers a new pathway for next-generation noninvasive BCI signal acquisition. Following the theme of “from cerebral blood-flow imaging to neural decoding, ” this review systematically summarizes the signal mechanisms, brain function detection and characterization methods, BCI readout feasibility, and core algorithmic frameworks of fUSI. Current studies have demonstrated that fUSI can be applied to fine-scale functional brain mapping, movement intention decoding, and natural behavioral variable analysis, showing strong potential for neural decoding. Future directions include real-time three-dimensional and four-dimensional imaging, multimodal integration, and adaptive online decoding, which may provide new approaches for high-precision closed-loop noninvasive BCI.
