这项随机研究的目的是比较热疗系统，434 MHz的热疗和传统超声治疗过度使用运动性肌腱病。研究组包括44名运动员，33名男性和11名女性（年龄26 +/- 4.56岁），受下肢肌腱病（髌骨或跟腱）影响。在阐明试验的类型后，22名患者被随机分配到热疗组和22名超声组。患者在疼痛测量和超声扫描后接受12次治疗，每周3次，持续4周。在治疗结束时和治疗结束后1个月进行相同的标准化检查。评估医生不知道治疗分配。要求患者根据疼痛缓解和恢复体育活动的情况对最终结局进行评分。两组患者的症状均明显减轻（P
The objective of this randomized study was to compare a thermotherapy system, hyperthermia at 434 MHz and conventional ultrasound in the treatment of overuse sports tendinopathies. The study group consisted of 44 athletes, 33 males and 11 females (age 26 +/- 4.56 years) affected by tendinopathies at lower extremities (patellar or achilles tendons). After elucidation of the kind of trial, 22 patients were randomly assigned to hyperthermia and 22 to ultrasound. The patients received after a pain measurement and ultrasound scanning 12 treatments, 3 times a week for 4 weeks. The same standardized examination was done at the end of treatment and 1 month after the end of treatment. The assessor physician was unaware of the treatment allocation. The patients were asked to rate the ultimate outcome on the base of pain resolution and return to sports activity. Both groups had a significant decrease of symptoms (P
