Abstract

The apparatus is used for therapeutically treating injuries using ul-trasound. The apparatus includes an ergonomically constructed ultrasonic transducer treatment head module (14) partially fabricated with a conduc-tive plastic material. The apparatus also utilizes a portable, ergonomically constructed main operating unit (12) constructed to fit within a pouch (18) worn by the patient. In operation, the transducer treatment head module (14) is positioned adjacent the area of the injury and excited for a predetermined period of time. To ensure that the transducer treatment head module (14) is properly positioned, and to ensure compliance with a treatment pro-tocol, a safety interlock is provided to prevent inadvertent excitation of the transducer.
