German term

Dauerpuls vs. gepulste Dauerwelle

German to English Tech/Engineering Cosmetics, Beauty Ultrasound
"Dauerpuls/Erwärmung/gepulste Dauerwelle"

These are the different settings / modes of an ultrasound device used for cosmetic treatments.

The client explained the two different terms as follows:

"- Dauerpuls = ständig, gleichbleibender Puls
- gepulste Dauerwelle = zyklischer Puls"

Is "continuous pulse" vs. "pulsed continuous wave" correct?
Proposed translations (English)
3 continuous mode vs. pulsed mode

continuous mode vs. pulsed mode

CUS Group: The right posterior member of each animal was shaved and the zone corresponding to the gastrocnemius muscle was irradiated with ultrasound in continuous mode, using a frequency of 3 Mhz and a 5 cm sound head for 1 minute with an intensity of 1 W/cm2. The sessions were conducted once a day for 10 consecutive days.

PUS Group: The same preparation was used as for the previous group, and the zone corresponding to the gastrocnemius muscle was irradiated with ultrasound in pulsed mode, using a frequency of 3 Mhz and a 5 cm sound head for 1 minute with an intensity of 1 W/cm2 with a pulsed emission of 1:2 (50% Duty cycle). The sessions were conducted once a day for 10 consecutive days.

This example is horrific. Poor animals.

neutral Harald 4711 : Falls das Englische aussagt, was das Deutsche eigentlich hätte ausdrücken wollen, hätte die Anfrage "Dauerstrich- vs. Impulsbetrieb" lauten müssen. Die vermeintliche Übersetzung ist gut geraten, aber am Ende ein Phantasieprodukt. *seufz*

Thanks for your feedback, Harald, but given the context, I do not agree.
