Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Shortwave diathermy is the modality that heats the largest volume of tissue as it can penetrate deeper than other modalities due to its high frequency waves. Thermal ultrasound, moist heat packs, and plug-in heat packs are more superficial modalities, limiting the amount of tissue they can heat.
