 MD Treatment Actuator 

The treatment actuator incorporates an ultrasonic transducer and connects to 
the driver with a cable. 

The transducer is the active element that converts electric signals to 
ultrasound waves.  

For effective treatment the transducer must be in full contact with the skin.
