When focused ultrasound (1) is applied to the spleen (2), it activates neurons (3), causing them to release certain neurotransmitters that interact with immune cells called T-cells (4) and macrophages ...

Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have begun a pilot clinical trial to test the efficacy of using ultrasound to stimulate the spleen and reduce COVID-19-related ...

Ultrasound is used widely in medical imaging, but in recent years scientists have started honing it for another use: stimulating nerves to treat disease. In two new studies in rodents, researchers ...
