1. Define therapeutic ultrasound. Discuss its physical principles, production, physiological effects, indications, contraindications, and clinical applications in physiotherapy. 2. Explain the mechanism of action of therapeutic ultrasound. Differentiate between thermal and non-thermal effects and discuss their therapeutic significance. 3. Describe the parameters of ultrasound therapy, including frequency, intensity, duty cycle, treatment duration, and treatment area. Discuss their clinical importance in treatment planning.

Quadrant - IV (MCQs)

Therapeutic ultrasound primarily uses:

A: Electromagnetic waves B: Sound waves with frequencies above human hearing range C: Infrared radiation D: Electrical current

A frequency of 1 MHz is generally used to treat tissues located:

A: Superficially (less than 1 cm deep) B. 1–2 cm deep C. Deep tissues (up to about 5 cm deep) B: 1–2 cm deep C: Deep tissues (up to about 5 cm deep) D: Only bone tissue

A frequency of 3 MHz is most effective for treating:

A: Deep muscles B: Superficial tissues (1–2 cm depth) C: Internal organs D: Bone marrow

Pulsed ultrasound is commonly used when the goal is:

A: Tissue heating B: Increasing skin pigmentation C: Non-thermal effects and tissue healing D: Muscle strengthening

During ultrasound treatment, the sound head should be moved continuously to:

A: Improve battery life D: Prevent hot spots and tissue damage C: Increase electrical conductivity D: Reduce gel usage
