The New York Times recently published an article online about a marathon runner who was having difficulty overcoming a bone injury. The injury was keeping the author from completing the New York City Marathon until a doctor suggested using a portable UltraSound Machine. This UltraSound Machine enabled the bone injury to heal 40 percent faster than it would have without the use of the machine. UltraSound is increasing becoming a popular tool to help individuals overcome hairline fractures and other bone injuries quickly.
