Precision Brain Therapy with MiNT™
Noninvasive, Multi-focal, image-guided Neuromodulation Therapy for the repair of damaged tracts and circuits anywhere in the brain
Problem
Treating Brain Disorders with Neuromodulation:
No solutions exist to safely repair damaged tracts and circuits anywhere in the brain
TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation):
Safe and effective, noninvasive therapy but can’t selectively and directly target tracts and circuits in the deep brain.
FUS (Focused Ultrasound Stimulation):
Noninvasive therapy for directly treating the deep brain, selectively and with high precision, but has potential safety (i.e., thermal) risks and requires active MRI-guidance.
DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation):
Invasive, surgical option involving electrode implants and surgical risk. Not multifocal and limited to specific indications and applications.
Existing therapies lack the ability to scale and safely, effectively, directly and comprehensively treat neural tracts and circuits anywhere in the brain
Solution
Multifocal image-guided Neuromodulation Therapy (MiNT™)
Not yet approved by the FDA and limited to investigational use only
MiNT™ has the potential to deliver biomarker-based treatments for a very wide range of mental health and neurological disorders
Image-guided treatment planning, with real-time targeting, and monitoring of location, dose, and response verification
Selective and Multifocal treatment of entire tracts and circuits anywhere in the brain
AI-assisted, personalization to improve response and remission with accelerated treatments
How it works
Why MiNT Stands Out?
A Comparison with Existing Brain Therapies
Why choose MiNT?
Not yet approved by the FDA and limited to investigational use only
Potential to deliver effective biomarker-based therapies for a wide range of mental health and neurological disorders with a safe, scalable, all-in-one solution that can be deployed in an office or mobile setting.
Patients:
Improved outcomes, fewer medications, lower side effects, fewer visits.
Clinicians:
Higher treatment efficacy, additional CPT codes for billing, potential as first-line therapy.
