Ultrahangterápia
Ultrahangterápia, also known as therapeutic ultrasound, is a modality used in physical therapy and rehabilitation. It involves the application of high-frequency sound waves to tissues within the body. These sound waves are typically above the range of human hearing, usually between 0.8 and 3.0 megahertz. The therapeutic effects are believed to be achieved through two primary mechanisms: thermal and non-thermal.
The thermal effects of ultrasound occur when the sound waves are absorbed by tissues, causing them to
The non-thermal effects are associated with mechanical vibrations caused by the sound waves. These mechanical forces
Ultrahangterápia is applied using a transducer, often called a probe, which is moved over the skin in
