More Information
Summary:An ultrasound therapy device for generating ultrasound therapy. The ultrasound therapy device includes a wearable structure, ultrasound transducer units, a tightening mechanism, a memory, and a processor. The wearable structure is securable to a user to transmit the ultrasound to a target therapy area of a user including at least one of a kidney region, a lung region, and a lower limb of the user. The ultrasound transducer units are attachable and repositionable in the wearable structure to generate and deliver the ultrasound to the target region. The ultrasound transducer units are arranged in an array. The array of ultrasound transducer units is mechanically moved within the wearable structure and is in contact with a material to facilitate penetration of ultrasound into the user's body.
