Abstract

Functional ultrasound (fUS) is an emerging technique that measures blood flow to report brain activity. In this issue of Neuron, Nunez-Elizalde et al. (2022) use simultaneous electrophysiological and fUS measurements to quantify the relationship between firing and fUS signals in awake mice.
