Özet

Background and Objective: Therapeutic ultrasound (US) and laser (L) treatments accelerate and facilitate wound healing, and also have beneficial effects on tendon healing. This randomized control study was designed to evaluate the effects of low-intensity US and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on tendon healing in rats.
