Abstract
The results of this 3Â MHz study revealed that the acoustic transmission characteristics of the T-Prep® and Aquasonic® gels were similar at increasing tissue temperature at a depth of 2.5Â cm. Given that there are numerous conducting mediums that have been shown to limit the transmission of ultrasonic waves, T-Prep® may be an option to Aquasonic® gel when tissue heating is desired. Further research on the depth of heating with T-Prep® gel would be appropriate.
