Faroogji, why don't you ask Alfonso to produce the data/links that shows DBS is more effective and safer than FUS?

the biggest disadvantage of FUS is that it is irreversible in case of any adverse outcome

FUS sounds like a better choice to me. Having an infection in your brain can do a lot of damage.
