Abstract:
Inpatients with progressive systemic scleroderma were submitted to ultrasound application several times every day. This type of ultrasonic therapy is practicable. Pain decreased in 18 of 24 patients. At the end of therapy, pain had not increased in any of the patients. The strength of the hands was significantly improved in all patients.
