ULTRASOUND An ultrasound is a medical imaging technique uses high frequency sound waves to look inside the body. During World War 2‚ there was a lot of research of radar and sonar which led to the invention and progress of the ultrasound device. It was invented by Ian Donald in 1957. It was first tested on a pregnant woman but later used for more purposes. The ultrasound was improved and also led to the development of other useful medical instruments such as the device CAVITRON‚ which destroys

Ultrasound is a sound pressure with a frequency greater than the limit of human hearing. This limit varies from person to person‚ it is around 20 kilohertz in young adults. 20 kHz is a useful lower limit in describing ultrasound. The making of ultrasound is used in many different fields ‚ a property also used by animals such as bats for hunting. The most well known application of ultrasound is its use in sonography to produce pictures of foetuses in the woman’s womb. Ultrasound is also used for

History‚ Use and Safety of Ultrasound Introduction Ultrasound is the generation of energy using sound wave of about 20‚000 or more vibrations per second. The ultrasound is mostly used in imaging tools and particularly in medical diagnosis. The ultrasound uses sound waves that are above the frequency of the human ear. A transducer is used to give off the sound waves that are reflected back from the tissues‚ and organs giving a picture of what are inside the body. This is later drawn on

What are Ultrasound Scanners? Ultrasound has been utilized as a tool in beef and diary research systems for many years‚ and in more recent yeas has become available to commercial livestock agriculture. An ultrasound is an electronic instrument that sends out ultrasonic waves from an attached device called a transducer. Waves pass freely through fluid and are reflected back to the probe resulting in an image that can be identified as the placenta‚ fetus‚ or other organs. Ultrasound may also be used
