Sonophoresis allows for the enhancement of the permeability of the skin along with other modalities, such as iontophoresis, to deliver drugs with lesser side effects. Currently, sonophoresis is used widely in transdermal drug delivery , but has potential applications in other sectors of drug delivery, such as the delivery of drugs to the eye ...
These techniques are known as Magnetic Resonance guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS) [31] [32] and Ultrasound guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (USgFUS) respectively. [ 1 ] [ 33 ] MRgFUS is a 3D imaging technique which features high soft tissue contrast and provides information about temperature, thus allowing to monitor ablation.

Depending on the desired effects of treatment a combination of different frequencies and displacement amplitude is applied. Depending on the tool and the Original Equipment Manufacturer, these frequencies range between 15 and 55 kHz, [1] with the displacement amplitude of the resonant body of between 20 and 80 μm (0.00079 and 0.00315 in).
Treatments last 4–12 hours and in general are well tolerated, and the occurrence of adverse events does not differ significantly across patients.
