title: Nuclear magnetic resonance study of changes induced by the energy of ultrasonic field in the lungs.
abstract: 156 laboratory mice were exposed to ultrasonic (US) waves under 12 different conditions. After exposure to ultrasounds, the left lung of each animal was studied morphopathologically and then analysed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The study emphasized the possibility of hemorrhagical lesions in the lung through US and the fact that both measurement techniques (for T1 and T2) are alike in sensitivity. The effect on the lung is depending on the intensity and time of exposure to US.
