摘要：
In some examples, a system includes a flexible ultrasound device configured to be attached to an external surface of a patient proximate to an organ of the patient to deliver ultrasound configured to modulate nerve tissue of the patient at the organ. The system further comprises one or more sensors configured to sense one or more physiological parameters indicative of at least one of a symptom treatable by, or a side effect of, the neuromodulation, and processing circuitry configured to control the delivery of ultrasound during an ambulatory period of the patient, and monitor the least one of the symptom or the side effect during the ambulatory period, based on the one or more physiological parameters. The organ may be the spleen and the ultrasound may at least one of regulate the autoimmune system of the patient, or reduce an inflammation response of the patient.
