    Like anything in this universe, something that is safe in one form,
    instance, or amount may be hazardous in another form, instance, or
    amount.  There are literally millions of examples in the natural
    world.  Take X-rays for example: we experience them in background
    radiation every day, and they are not particularly harmful in small
    dosages (like tooth diagnostics at the dentist), but are quite
    deadly in large dosages. 

    I have had ultrasound done as a diagnostic during my pregnancy; as
    well as ultrasound therapy for muscle tissues.  That does not mean
    that those forms of ultrasound are the same as what is used in a
    cleaning tank!  Follow the precautions stated by the manufacturer,
    and use those precautions as minimum guidelines -- they are there to
    try to keep you safe.
