Brief Summary:
The purposes of this research study is to
1 Develop a technique of transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation tFUS where meaningful effects on the brain can be easily measured
2 Use this technique to measure threshold for effective tFUS in individuals
3 Determine whether disruption of conscious visual detection versus non-conscious visually-guided behavior have different thresholds for disruption with tFUS

Detailed Description:
Transcranial focused ultrasound tFUS is a new noninvasive way to stimulate the brain in an awake and alert person Investigators do not yet have an easily observable way to know whether they are in the right brain location with the correct dose for that person Investigators wonder if they can produce a transient change in someones visual field called a scotoma and whether they can use that to determine the minimum tFUS dose for that person
