Non-Contact Ultrasound Treatment for Wounds. Ultrasound is defined as a mechanical vibration above the upper threshold of human hearing. Ultrasound (US) in the kilohertz range (1â3 MHz) has been used for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders, primarily by physical therapists. A non-contact low-intensity US device has been developed that does not require use of a coupling gel or other direct contact.
Sensory nerves. Sensory nerves deliver information to your spinal cord from muscles and joints about your body position. They also transmit sensations such as touch, pressure, pain and temperature, which are experienced on the surface of your skin. This information enters your spinal cord via your posterior grey horn.
Role of the spinal nerves. The spinal nerves (shown here from the front) carry sensory nerve impulses towards the spinal cord and brain. They also carry motor nerve impulses from the brain to the rest of the body.tructure of the spinal cord. The spinal cord has a core of grey matter containing nerve cell bodies, dendrites, and supporting cells. Surrounding the grey matter is white matter containing columns of nerve fibres that carry signals to and from the brain along the length of the spinal cord.
