Both therapeutic ultrasound and diagnostic ultrasound leverages sound waves. The sonographers use diagnostic ultrasound or sonography as a diagnostic tool to produce images of various structures in the human body. These pictures help doctors and physicians to diagnose and treat various health problems and diseases effectively.
On the other hand, physiotherapists use diagnostic ultrasound to reduce pain, heal wounds, and repair damaged tissues. Therapeutic ultrasound heals and repairs the damaged tissues quickly by delivering deep heating. You can get ultrasound therapy without experiencing pain or managing adverse side-effects.
