ITO OSTEOTRON IV: Clinical Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) Bone Healing System
Clinically proven to accelerate fresh fracture healing by up to 38% and treat delayed unions and non-unions, featuring dual output channels, 1.5 MHz & 750 kHz frequencies, and rechargeable battery operation.
• Mechanotransduction: Ultrasound-Induced Osteogenesis & Angiogenesis
Acoustic Mechanotransduction
LIPUS transmits non-thermal micromechanical acoustic pressure waves into bone tissue. Osteoblasts, osteocytes, and mesenchymal stem cells transduce these mechanical forces into biochemical signals via integrins and stretch-activated ion channels, upregulating COX-2, PGE2, and Runx2 expression.
Vascularization & Callus Mineralization
Stimulates VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) secretion, rapidly accelerating local capillary angiogenesis across the fracture gap. Enhances endochondral ossification, transforming soft fibrocartilage into hard mineralized bony callus.
Key Clinical Innovations & Advantages
2 Independent Channels
Features two probe ports to treat multi-fragmented fractures or treat two different fracture sites simultaneously.
750 kHz & 1.5 MHz Options
1.5 MHz is optimal for superficial fractures (fibula, radius, scaphoid), while 750 kHz delivers deep acoustic penetration for femur and deep pelvic non-unions.
20-Minute Daily Treatment
Patients undergo an easy, painless 20-minute daily session at home or in clinic with automatic timer shut-off.
Specialized Straps & Holders
Includes custom probe brackets that fasten securely over casting windows, orthotic splints, or external fixators.
