Low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (FUS) has emerged as a non-invasive brain stimulation modality that can reach deep brain areas with high spatial specificity. Previous studies have identified transient effects of FUS on the brain excitability and accompanying physiological responses. Yet the presence of long-lasting effects of FUS, which extend on the order of half an hour or more, has not been probed. We transcranially applied FUS to the somatosensory areas of the anesthetized rats for 10 min at a low duty cycle (5%) and intensity, far below the level that could alter the tissue temperature. Concurrently, we measured electroencephalographic (EEG) somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) induced by the unilateral electrical stimulation of the hind limb before and after the sonication. Compared to the control sham condition that did not involve sonication, differential SEP features were evident and persisted beyond 35 min after the administration of FUS. The presence of this non-transient neuromodulatory effect may provide early evidence that FUS-mediated brain stimulation has the potential to induce neuroplasticity.
