This is new area of structural-acoustic interactions through human cell membranes that in turn stimulates electrical magnetic waves. Human cell membranes are natural smart materials.

Unlocking the brain's secrets using sound

Scientists might be on the verge of finally understanding how ultrasound affects nerve cells. The breakthrough could lead the way to important new medical advances, including the noninvasive treatment of epileptic seizures and restoration of sight.
