Scottish doctors are using ultrasound to help speed the recovery of broken bones by stimulating bone regeneration through cell vibration. And the sound frequency & pulse rate of the ultrasound is different than that used on pregnant women, but the technology is the same. The transducer gets a coating of water based gel, & is then slipped into a strap that holds it on the break, stimulating cellular activity.
Doctors found that the ultrasound therapy can lower recovery time by more than one third.
