Abstract
Tendon injuries are the most common soft tissue injuries, caused by tissue overuse and age‐related degeneration. However, the tendon repair process is slow and inefficient due to the lack of cellular structure and blood vessels in the tendon. Low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has received increasing attention as a non‐invasive, simple, and safe way to promote tendon healing. This review summarizes the effects and underlying mechanisms of LIPUS on tendon injury by comprehensively examining the published literature, including in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies. This review reviewed 24 studies, with 87.5% showing improvement. The application of LIPUS in tendon diseases is a promising field worthy of further study.
