Apparatus for ultrasonic therapeutic treatment

摘要

The apparatus comprises a piezoelectric vibrator adapted to generate ultrasonic energy which is transmitted through an output section 1 to a plastics head 6. The shape of the head 6 may be varied to suit whichever part of a body on which it is to be used. The material and shape of the head 6 is chosen to allow accurate control of frequency and amplitude of the ultrasonic energy. The preferred ultrasonic frequency is in the range of 20-120 kHz.
