Enzymatically isolated myocardial cells of Wistar rats were used to study contraction under the influence of ultrasound. The dynamics of sarcomere length were measured using a laser diffraction technique. The presence of continuous-wave ultrasound (f = 2.25 MHz, PSPTA = 0.3 MPa and f = 10 MHz, PSPTA
