2. Ultrasonic cavitation device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_cavitation_device

   Ultrasonic cavitation device. Ultrasonic cavitation device is a surgical device using low frequency ultrasound energy to dissect or fragment tissues with low fiber content. It is basically an ultrasound probe (acoustic vibrator) combined with an aspirator device ( suction ). [1] It is mainly used for tissues with high water content and low ...

3. 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 ...

4. Ultrasonic antifouling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_antifouling

   Ultrasonic antifouling. Ultrasonic antifouling is a technology that uses high frequency sound ( ultrasound) to prevent or reduce biofouling on underwater structures, surfaces, and medium. Ultrasound is just high frequency sound (which humans can not hear). Ultrasound has the same physical properties as human-audible sound.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. Therapeutic ultrasound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therapeutic_ultrasound

   Therapeutic ultrasound refers generally to any type of ultrasonic procedure that uses ultrasound for therapeutic benefit. Physiotherapeutic ultrasound was introduced into clinical practice in the 1950s, with lithotripsy introduced in the 1980s. Others are at various stages in transitioning from research to clinical use: HIFU, targeted ...
