The Effects of Low-Intensity Ultrasound on Fat Reduction of Rat Model

Figure 2

Pretreatment, posttreatment, and follow-up ultrasound images of three of the subjects (R8, R11, and R3) receiving ultrasound induced lipolysis treatment. The site of measurement was referenced to the identified anatomical trademark. (a) Fat layer showed a thickness reduction of 0.9 mm after treatment (high effect); (b) fat layer showed a thickness reduction of 0.4 mm after treatment (low effect); (c) fat layer showed a thickness reduction of 0.7 mm after treatment (Moderate effect).
