  2. Cavitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavitation

    Ultrasonic cavitation inception will occur when the acceleration of the ultrasound source is enough to produce the needed pressure drop. This pressure drop depends on the value of the acceleration and the size of the affected volume by the pressure wave. The dimensionless number that predicts ultrasonic cavitation is the Garcia-Atance number.

  3. Fat removal procedures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_removal_procedures

    Fat removal procedures are used mostly in cosmetic surgery with the intention of removing unwanted adipose tissue. The procedure may be invasive, as with liposuction, [1] or noninvasive using laser therapy, radiofrequency, ultrasound or cold ( cryoablation or cryolipolysis) to reduce fat, sometimes in combination with injections. [2] [3] Fat is ...

  4. Sonochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonochemistry

    Sonochemistry. In chemistry, the study of sonochemistry is concerned with understanding the effect of ultrasound in forming acoustic cavitation in liquids, resulting in the initiation or enhancement of the chemical activity in the solution. [1] Therefore, the chemical effects of ultrasound do not come from a direct interaction of the ultrasonic ...

  5. Sonication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonication

    Sonication. Sonication is the act of applying sound energy to agitate particles in a sample, for various purposes such as the extraction of multiple compounds from plants, microalgae and seaweeds. [1] Ultrasonic frequencies (> 20 kHz) are usually used, leading to the process also being known as ultrasonication or ultra-sonication.

  6. Sonophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonophoresis

    Sonophoresis. Sonophoresis also known as phonophoresis, is a method that utilizes ultrasound to enhance the delivery of topical medications through the stratum corneum, to the epidermis and dermis. Sonophoresis allows for the enhancement of the permeability of the skin along with other modalities, such as iontophoresis, to deliver drugs with ...

  7. Therapeutic ultrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therapeutic_ultrasound

    Non thermal effects are from cavitation, microstreaming and acoustic streaming. Cavitational effects result from the vibration of the tissue causing microscopic bubbles to form, which transmit the vibrations in a way that directly stimulates cell membranes. This physical stimulation appears to enhance the cell-repair effects of the inflammatory ...
