  Abstract: Background: Nonunions have been mainly treated with invasive methods by adequate mechanical stability and provision of biological environment leading to bone healing rate of 68%-96%, however, with inherent risks and complications. As an alternative to surgical interventions, low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), a biophysical method has been emerged. We aimed to prospectively compare the clinical and functional outcomes between two groups treated with LIPUS and capacitively coupled electric fields (CCEFs) for …
