简要总结

ZetrOZ's Ultrasonic Diathermy device (sam(R) Professional System) is intended for use as a portable and wearable medical device which, when applied to various areas of the body applies Low Intensity Therapeutic Ultrasound (LITUS) to deep tissues. This device is FDA-cleared for pain reduction, treatment of muscle spasm and joint contracture, and increasing local circulation. This study will look at the use of therapeutic ultrasound to relieve pain and enhance tendon extensibility for individuals with tendinopathy over a 6 week time period.
