A Narrative Review of Noninvasive Therapy
摘要
This chapter discusses the current theoretical and practical applications of ultrasound-assisted or vibratory blood flow activation and bioparticle separation technologies. The disadvantages of high megahertz ultrasound, which is widely used in medical practice for diagnostic and sometimes therapeutic purposes, are related to the limited penetration depth of the acoustic signal, the scattered effect on biological tissues and the overheating. Emphasis is placed on the use of ultrasound to activate the delivery of drugs to the target by disrupting the biofilm covering the bacteria and, at the same time, to activate the effect of antibiotics in the treatment of inflammatory processes.
