A review of therapeutic ultrasound: biophysical effects.
Almost 2 decades ago, it was pointed out that physical therapists tended to overlook the tenuous nature of the scientific basis for the use of therapeutic ultrasound. The purpose of this review is to examine the literature regarding the biophysical effects of therapeutic ultrasound to determine whether these effects may be considered sufficient to provide a reason (biological rationale) for the...
متن کاملUltrasound Findings of Appendico-cecal invagination: A Case Report and Literature Review
Introduction Appendicocecal intussusception is an uncommon condition which must be differentiated from other types of invagination due to different therapeutic approaches and its ultrasound findings are outspread and imperfectly presented in literature. We present a cas...
متن کاملDestructive effects of therapeutic ultrasound and gold nanoparticles on a breast carcinoma tumor model in BALB/c mice
Background: Acoustic cavitation which occurs at high intensities of ultrasound waves can be fatal for tumor cells; however, it can be used to destroy cancer cells as an efficient therapeutic method. On the other hand, it is known that the existence of nanoparticles in a liquid decreases the acoustic cavitation onset threshold. Materials and Methods: In this work, the combined effects of therape...
متن کاملSYNERGISM BETWEEN 1-MEGAHERTZ THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND PL US CEFTAZ-IDIME ON GROWTH OF PSEUDOMONASAERUGINOSA
Objective: The effect of ceftazidime on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with or without application of 1 MHz therapeutic ultrasound, was studied. Method: An aqueous suspension of microorganisms in a sterile, sealed plate was placed in an ultrasonic tank operating at 1 MHz. Different power outputs were used. After desired time of exposure to the ultrasound, each sample was plated separately and aft...
متن کاملAn overview of therapeutic applications of ultrasound based on synergetic effects with gold nanoparticles and laser excitation
Acoustic cavitation which occurs at high intensities of ultrasound waves can be fatal for tumor cells. The existence of dissolved gases and also the presence of nanoparticles (NPs) in a liquid, irradiated by ultrasound, decrease the acoustic cavitation onset threshold and the resulting bubbles collapse. On the other hand, due to unique capabilities and optical properties of gold nanoparticles (...
