Application of Ultrasound In Medical And Industrial field The term ultrasound defines sound waves of frequencies above the threshold of human hearing‚ 20 kHz. Ultrasound may be propagated in a variety of modes through different materials and offers a wide range of both medical and industrial applications. In the medical field‚ the development of a foetus is routinely monitored by ultrasound; cardiac irregularities‚ along with kidney stones and osteoporosis may all be identified. Ultrasound also

Mirror Neurons are neurons that fires both when an action is being done by a person‚ animal‚ or thing and when the person or animal observes the same action performed by someone or something else. These neurons have been observed in primates. They act and “mirrors” the behavior of the other‚ as though the observer were doing the acting.

Congenital Heart Disease Congenital heart diseases are lesions‚ caused by abnormal development of the structures of the heart. This happens in the embryonic life due to environmental or unknown factors. The cause of congenital disease is usually unknown‚ but there are multifactor reasons that are incriminated. They are said to be sporadic. This meaning that it is not secluded to one geographic location. However this incidence is increased in those with a positive

the bottom‚ cooled by liquid nitrogen‚ causes the magnet above to levitate. The floating magnet induces a current‚ and therefore a magnetic field‚ in the superconductor‚ and the two magnetic fields repel to levitate the magnet. Another property of a superconductor is that once the transition from the normal state to the superconducting state occurs‚ external magnetic fields can’t penetrate it. This effect is called the Meissner effect and has implications for making high speed‚ magnetically-levitated
