To create an anatomic image, the transducer emits a ___ that travels to a ___ located in the body and then returns to the transducer
|
Sound Pulse
Reflector |
|
|
The elapsed time from pulse creation to pulse reception is called what?
|
Go-Return Time
Time-of-Flight |
|
|
What is the relationship between time of flight and depth?
|

|
|
|
Given the speed of sound through soft tissue, how do we calculate depth?
|
depth (mm) = (1.54mm/microseconds x go-return-time) / 2
|
|
|
What is the 13-microsecond rule?
|
For every 13 microseconds of go-return time, the reflector is 1 cm deeper
|
|
|
The PRP is the ___ of a sound pulse between the transducer and the bottom of the image
|
Go-Return Time
Time-of-Flight |
|
|
What is the relationship between PRP and imaging depth?
|

|
|
|
How do we calculate PRP?
|
PRP (microsec) = depth (cm) x 13 (microsec/cm)
|
|
|
What is the relationship between PRF and imaging depth?
|
Inversely Related
|
|
|
How do we calculate PRF?
|
PRF (Hz) = 77000 (cm/s) / depth (cm)
|
|
