Ultrasound-mediated transdermal drug delivery: mechanisms, scope, and emerging trends.

Polat BE, Hart D, Langer R, Blankschtein D

The use of ultrasound for the delivery of drugs to, or through, the skin is commonly known as sonophoresis or phonophoresis. The use of therapeutic and high frequencies of ultrasound (≥0.7MHz) for sonophoresis (HFS) dates back to as early as the 1950s, while low-frequency sonophoresis (LFS, 20-100kHz) has only been...

Evaluation of factors influencing the quality and efficacy of ultrasound and phonophoresis treatment.

Goraj-Szczypiorowska B, Zajac L, Skalska-Izdebska R

The first attempts at using ultrasound acoustic waves to aid the penetration of drugs into the skin tissue were made in the 1950’s. Despite a wide usage of phonophoresis in physical therapy cabinets, doubts persist as to the relevance and efficacy of this method. Despite its popularity, the issue of...

Management of chronic tendon injuries.

Childress MA, Beutler A

Chronic tendon injuries present unique management challenges. The assumption that these injuries result from ongoing inflammation has caused physicians to rely on treatments demonstrated to be ineffective in the long term. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should be limited in the treatment of these injuries. Corticosteroid injections should be considered for temporizing...
