You would like to achieve the ‘mild’ thermal effects of ultrasound; the tissue is superficial (~.5cm deep) and the size of the area is 2 times the ERA. What parameter settings would you use? Please also list the target tissue temperature. 0.5 W/cm2 1.0 W/cm2 1.5 W/cm2 2.0 W/cm2 1 MHz 0.04 0.2 0.3 0.4 3 MHz 0.3 0.6 0.9 1.4 Frequency: Give a number Target Temperature (from the chart): Give a number Show the math equation with degrees per min (based on intensity)* time that gets you to the correct target temperature.

You decide to use E-stim to reduce the pain associated with a chronic low back sprain. You have a standard portable/hand-held TENS unit. What would you set the following parameters: 1. Pulse rate (Give a number or range of numbers) 2. Pulse duration (Give a number or range of numbers) 3. Intensity (Sub-sensory, Sensory, Motor, or Noxious) 4. On what Theory or Mechanism are you basing your selection?
