Temperatures in human thighs after hot pack treatment followed by ultrasound

J F Lehmann et al. Arch Phys Med Rehabil. 1978 Oct.

Abstract

Temperature distributions were measured in the anterior thigh of human volunteers after preheating with a hot pack followed by ultrasound, a frequently used therapeutic procedure. The skin surface temperature is elevated by this procedure but the highest temperature is still produced at the bone-muscle interface at the end of the treatment session.
