The Yellow Transducer features a continuous ultrasonic emission to generate acoustic effects and also diathermy / deep heat.
Concave transducers were conceived to treat smaller or rounded areas, since the concave shape allows better coupling on rounded surfaces. In any case you should always try to have the best possible adhesion between the transducer and the area to treat, since air does not allow ultrasound propagation: this is the reason why you need to make sure there is always gel between the transducer and dog hair.
The Yellow Transducer generates the following acoustic effects:
- cavitation
- acoustical streaming
- micro-streaming
.
Each K-9 Ultrasound Therapy transducer comes with a total treatment time of 150 hours (or 9,000 minutes – approx. 900-1000 treatments). After the expiration of the 150 hours a new transducer must be purchased.
The Yellow Transducer is particularly indicated to treat:
- arthrosis
- acute muscle pathologies (e.g. muscle contractures)
- muscle strains
- chronic muscle pathologies (atrophy, fibrosis, fibrotic myopathy)
- drainage of hematoma at advanced stage / organized or calcified hematoma
- scar tissue softening
.
K-9 Ultrasound Therapy transducers are guaranteed only for the treatment hours assigned by the manufacturer to each transducer (150 hours). After 24 months from the transducer purchase date, the transducer warranty will expire anyway, regardless of the amount of treatment hours still available. Please check our Warranty Terms.
CAUTION: Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.
