FUS was applied in the caudate and putamen in three animals causing a BBB opening volume close to 400 mm³ (300 kPa for NHP 2, 450 kPa for NHP 3 and 4). The opening volume was shown in (A), and the total cavitation dose in (B). Based on the tissue segmentation, the gray-and-white matter composition in the sonicated area (C) and in the BBB opening area (D) were calculated. The correlation of total cavitation dose to the BBB opening volume was calculated in (E), in which it was better correlated with the total opening volume than with the volume in gray matter.
