The role of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on bone and soft tissue healing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is a widely used therapy method for bone and soft tissue injury patients. However, the exact mechanism is not very clear until now. In this review, we summarized the possible mechanisms of LIPUS therapy on bone-tendon junction (BTJ), stem cells, muscle injury, wounds, bone healing, osteoporotic fracture, and osteoarthritis. Once the underlying mechanism of LIPUS is clarified, many patients will obtain benefits from this treatment method.

THE BEST DURATION OF LOW INTENSITY PULSED ULTRASOUND FOR ACCELERATING FRACTURED-RADIAL BONE REPAIR
We have already shown that low intensity pulsed ultrasonic treatment increases rabbit radial fracture healing. The present experiment was undertaken to find out the best duration for treatment. A complete transverse fracture was made in the right radial bones of21 adult male rabbits by a Stanley knife. The animals were divided into 4 groups: group 1, control groups 2, 3, and 4, experimental...

In order to study the effect of ultrasound (US) on bone healing, a complete transverse fracture was made in the right radius of adult male rabbits by a cutter. 52 rabbits were used: group I. control (n= 17): group 2. test (n:=: 15): group 3, intact (n= I) and group 4 (n= 12) who were examined only for evaluation of the cutter effects in detail. 7 animals were operated with a Gigli saw. The ...

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is a form of ultrasound that delivered at a much lower intensity (<3 W/cm(2)) than traditional ultrasound energy and output in the mode of pulse wave, and it is typically used for therapeutic purpose in rehabilitation medicine. LIPUS has minimal thermal effects due to its low intensity and pulsed output mode, and its non-thermal effects which is normally ...
متن کاملOsteoporotic Bone showed Enhanced Fracture Healing Response with Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound
Introduction: Most fractures in elderly are fragility fractures occurring in osteoporotic bones. Delayed in treatment may cause morbidity and mortality with many complications and social burdens. Our previous clinical study had shown that the use of low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) could provide a beneficial effect on complex fracture. This promising efficacy was further consolidated thr...
متن کاملAB180. The characteristics and therapeutic applications of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound
Ultrasound is a form of mechanical energy with its acoustic pressure wave at frequencies range from 20 to 20,000 Hz. To date, ultrasound waves are not only used in imaging medicine for diagnosis, but also are performed in physical therapy (PT) medicine for the purpose of preventing and curing disease due to its thermal and nonthermal effects, and the ultrasound frequencies used in PT are typica...
