Ultrasonically enhanced substance delivery system and device

Abstract

A system for enhancing delivery of at least one substance situated substantially adjacent to a surface of a subject through the surface and into the subject. The device includes at least one ultrasound emitting device secured to the subject. The at least one ultrasonic emitting device emits at least one ultrasonic signal responsively to an input alternating between a square waveform and a sawtooth waveform so as to enhance movement of at least a portion of the substance into the subject.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A device for enhancing delivery of at least one substance situated substantially adjacent to a surface of subject through said surface and into said subject, said device comprising: 
 at least one ultrasound emitting device secured to said subject;    wherein, said at least one ultrasonic emitting device emits at least one ultrasonic signal dependent upon an alternating input so as to enhance movement of at least a portion of said substance into said subject.    
     
     
         2 . A system for enhancing delivery of at least one substance situated substantially adjacent to a surface of a subject through said surface and into said subject, said device comprising: 
 at least one ultrasound emitting device secured to said subject;    wherein, said at least one ultrasonic emitting device emits at least one ultrasonic signal responsively to an input alternating between a square waveform and a sawtooth waveform so as to enhance movement of at least a portion of said substance into said subject.
