Ultrasound therapy is used to treat various muscle and tissue injuries by stimulating the affected parts of the body using ultrasonic waves. Where ultrasound has been used in the past in mostly diagnostic imaging applications, developments over the past decade have found uses for ultrasound therapy at much higher intensities for therapeutic applications, including:
- Pain Reduction
- Cell Repair and Healing for Musculoskeletal Injuries
- Shock Wave Lithotripsy
- Acoustic Hemostasis
- Ultrasound-enhanced Drug Delivery
