In order to investigate biological effects of ultrasounds on blood cell DNA, a biochemical study was undertaken at the ultrastructural and molecular level on lymphocytes from babies whose delivery was directed through ultrasound monitorage and babies whose mother had undergone ultrasound monitorage 48 hours before delivery. Our preliminary results show that the ultrasounds currently employed in diagnostics and monitorage can induce upon DNA in vivo reversible damages, as mentioned before, while ultrastructural alterations are still detectable 48 hours after sonication

Abstract

In order to investigate biological effects of ultrasounds on blood cell DNA, a biochemical study was undertaken at the ultrastructural and molecular level on lymphocytes from babies whose delivery was directed through ultrasound monitorage and babies whose mother had undergone ultrasound monitorage 48 hours before delivery. Our preliminary results show that the ultrasounds currently employed in diagnostics and monitorage can induce upon DNA in vivo reversible damages, as mentioned before, while ultrastructural alterations are still detectable 48 hours after sonication
