LIPUS pretreatment improved neuronal damage in brain tissue of mice after MCAO. Mice were pretreatment LIPUS for 5 consecutive days (15 min daily) before MCAO procedure. The pathological changes in left cerebral hemisphere tissues were scoring after MCAO on 7 day (A). The brain infract volumes were also presented (B). Data are presented as means ± SEM (n = 6 per group). *P < 0.05, sham group versus MCAO group; #P < 0.05, MCAO group versus MCAO + LIPUS group. S: sham, M: MCAO, M + U: MCAO + LIPUS.
