    Ultrasonic cleaners WILL do damage to your tissues.  Ultrasonic
    cleaners by their nature degas the liquids that are in the tank. 
    Your blood and tissues have dissolved gasses in them. Here is an
    experiment you can do to illustrate what ultrasonic cleaners,
    regardless of power or frequency, will do to your tender parts. 
    Take a glass and put an inch of fresh coca cola in it.  Now immerse
    this glass in a ultrasonic cleaner that is up and running.  Watch and
    learn what is going on in your tissues and blood when it is subjected
    to ultrasonic energy. The difference between ultrasonic cleaners and
    ultrasound or lithotripsy is the focus of the sound and power levels
    used. You can rationalize all you want but damage to tissue and blood
    is done when you put your fingers in a running ultrasonic cleaner.  
    The damage is cumulative!
