Diagnosis ultrasound principles

The diagnosis ultrasoundis a sound with a frequency going above the hearable level of a human ear, at about 20 kHz (kilohertz). Some animals can hear and acknowledge the ultrasound as they have the higher band of listening. The diagnosis ultrasound has found its usage mostly in medicine, for diagnosing illnesses or for general overview of any part of your body. What is a diagnosis ultrasound? The diagnosis ultrasound works by leakage of the ultrasound waves with high frequency through living tissue. The waves are then reflected against this tissue, intensity of which depends of the type of the living tissue the ultrasound is going through. For an example, if you’re performing a diagnosis ultrasound on an area with a lot of bones, on the final print the bones will be represented in their real shape and will be intensively white, meaning that a lot of the ultrasound waves have been completely reflected. Another good example of this principle can be seen when performing a diagnosis ultrasound on a pregnant woman and her baby. The amniotic fluid has low factor for reflecting, so it will actually absorb most of the ultrasound waves, making it appear black on the final print, while the baby will appear obvious in a light gray tone. Diagnosis ultrasound during pregnancy The diagnosis ultrasound during pregnancy is [...]
