In this study, we verified the feasibility of T2 values combined with edema volume changes in evaluating the neuro therapeutic effect of low-intensity transcranial ultrasound stimulation (LITUS) on post-traumatic brain edema with rat model. The neuro therapeutic effect of LITUS was attributed to inhibiting the expression of AQP4 and promoting the removal of β-APP.
