Abstract

A method for mid-intensity non-ablative acoustic treatment of injured tissue is disclosed. The method involves continuously moving an ultrasound probe across an extracorporeal skin surface while emitting non-ablative therapeutic ultrasound into the injured tissue in a non-ablative therapeutic ultrasound beam profile. The method terminates energy delivery if movement speed is below a speed threshold. The non-ablative therapeutic ultrasound beam profile provides substantially uniform heating throughout a treatment volume. The heating is non-ablative and triggers a healing response in the injured tissue.
