Abstract

The present invention relates the field of ultrasound and neurostimulation. The inventors have shown that using ultrasound neurostimulation with specific parameters provides similar or better effects that fluoxetine administration in depression. Such assessment was made in unpredictable chronic mild stress model in mouse. The proposed use also provides with positive effects in other cases, such as modulating emotion or attenuating anxiety-related behaviours (stress notably).
