Comparing perceived heating effect and intensity of therapeutic ultrasound between breast tissue and calf muscle in lactating women: An observational study
As perception of breast and calf warmth differs, TUS parameters used to treat musculoskeletal conditions may not be appropriate for inflammatory conditions of the lactating breast. Additional studies are needed to determine the tolerability and effectiveness of TUS using different intensities when treating women with ICLB.
