Ultrasound

while digital images are used by most people. The two types of images are created drastically different; digital is made from light whereas ultrasound, a type of diagnostic image, is made from sound. Although digital images have an important purpose, ultrasound images are the more important revolution. For instance, ultrasound images…

Ultrasound has been used for many years to help diagnosis. Ultrasound describes sound frequencies beyond the range of normal human hearing and 20 kilohertz. Ultrasound uses focused low-energy ultrasound waves to visualize the interior of the body in a noninvasive and painless way. Many people are to thanks for the evolution of ultrasound. Dating back to the 1700’s. Lazzaro Spallanzani in 1793 observed that bats function efficiently in the dark, even when blinded, but not if deafened. He…

Hmmm, I wonder if there is a way to create an ultrasound machine that could create 3D images. Kazunori Baba, M.D., Ph.D. thought to himself one day. For a time Kazunori Baba has been realizing the benefits of such a machine. He thinks to himself, the benefits of a 3D ultrasound would be monumental, my expecting mothers could not only see their babies in real time, but as a doctor I would also be able to better see the babies and find any possible birth defects before the delivery. But will there…

Changed Fetal Ultrasound Introduction Technology has changed fetal ultrasound by allowing abnormalities to be found earlier and cured more precisely, being able to accurately judge anything from gender to age, and creating a better picture for the parents. “Fetal ultrasound is the safest way to check for problems and get information on the fetus” (The Future of Ultrasound: Color Photos and 4D Imagery, 2014, p.1). It is different than x-rays because it doesn’t use radiation, “Ultrasound comes…

Ultrasound Technicians, also known as diagnostic medical sonographers, use equipment that makes sound waves to produce or record a picture of the internal organs. Sonography is an important medical field because it allows technicians and physicians to see and diagnose a patient’s condition in a minimally intrusive way. What once may have required exploratory surgery now is a quick outpatient procedure with minimal patient discomfort. Ultrasound works by using a high rate of sound waves and…

this field need to be keen to be doing hands on things because it will be used during training. A favored goal in this career is to become really good at this profession and would be the preferred sonographer for the people when they come to get ultrasounds. Candidates that want to be in this career should be able to handle to see the different things inside the body, for example, how the fetus develops inside. Being a diagnostic medical sonographer is important in the medical field because they…

Ultrasounds date all the way back to the year 1958. Ultrasounds use noninvasive waves, that go through the body, so others can see inside of that person’s body. One of the amazing things about ultrasounds, is that they have a frequency of 20 kHz of 20,000 Hz. This paper will talk about what ultrasounds are, how we use them, what is the application of an ultrasound in medicine, how each part works in the ultrasound machine. Another thing that this paper will be talking about, would be why…

It is no doubt that since the birth of ultrasound, new technologies have been continuously developed for the advancement in Diagnostic Sonography. In just the last 30 years, Diagnostic Sonography has become ranked amongst the most rapid and complex developments in Diagnostic Imaging and healthcare. With this growth have come concerns, primarily the concerns of the effects of the sound waves on the biological tissues. These hazards derive mostly from the heating of the tissue by the absorption…

bachelor’s degree program that CNM offers, which gives students the ultimate exposure to the various ultrasound specialties and a strong knowledge of other imaging modalities. To become a sonographer, there is both classroom and clinical training that is required. Sonography students take general courses in anatomy and physiology as well as ultrasound-specific imaging. Students are also required to take ultrasound physics courses, which can be quite challenging. In addition to classroom time,…

utilizing ultrasound machine, we will begin to expound on the history and how this machine began to improvement by numerous researchers, and by what means can many specialists began to utilize this machine for some reasons to individuals and to spare their lives. Likewise, how does this machine got to be distinctly well known and the preferred standpoint and weakness of utilizing ultrasound. How does this machine function and what amount costs. Here all data about ultrasound machine.…
