"Low-intensity ultrasound was then used to effectively disrupt neuronal activity in that brain region, resulting in the animals displaying different decision-making outcomes." Learn More here:

An incredible new study suggests that low-intensity ultrasound can be used to target very specific brain regions and alter an animal's decision-making processes. The technique, demonstrated in macaques monkeys, prompts actual behavioral changes using non-invasive ultrasound waves.
