Iontophoresis - Preferred

Concept UI	M0011679
Scope note	Therapeutic introduction of ions of soluble salts into tissues by means of electric current. In medical literature it is commonly used to indicate the process of increasing the penetration of drugs into surface tissues by the application of electric current. It has nothing to do with ION EXCHANGE; AIR IONIZATION nor PHONOPHORESIS, none of which requires current.
Preferred term	Iontophoresis
Entry term(s)	Iontophoreses
