Can someone please explain (in 1-2 paragraphs) the physical basis of ultrasound imaging. How does it work, what is it used for, and how it's related to concepts of waves and impedance? Basically, how does ultrasound imaging accomplish its function via physics concepts?
The ultrasound beam originates from mechanical oscillations of crystals in a transducer, which is excited by electrical pulses (piezoelectric effect). The transducer converts one type of energy into another (electrical to mechanical/sound).
The ultrasound waves (pulses of sound) are sent from the transducer, propagate through different tissues, and then return to the transducer as reflected echoes. The returned echoes are converted back into electrical impulses by the transducer crystals and are further processed to form the ultrasound image presented on the screen.
The portion of the ultrasound beam that is reflected is determined by the difference in acoustic impedance between adjacent structures. Acoustic impedance is the product of a tissue's density and the velocity of the sound waves passing through it; therefore, the denser the tissue, the greater the acoustic impedance. The large differences in density and sound velocity between air, bone, and soft tissue create a correspondingly large difference in acoustic impedance, causing almost all of the sound waves to be reflected at soft tissue-bone and soft tissue-air interfaces.

Please answer all of these questions with brief explanations. Thank you! Name: Doppler ultrasound PROBLEM 4-8 points Ultrasound is the name we give to sound waves that have a higher frequency than 20 kHz, which is the maximum frequency our ears can respond to. For this problem, assume that high frequency sound waves travel through human tissue at 1500 m/s (about the speed of sound in water). 2 points] (a) Ultrasound equipment for diagnostic imaging typically uses frequencies between 1...

Describe nursing education that should accompany a patient with Cholecystitits? 3. WHat medications can be used to treat and/or alleviate Cholecystitis?
Biochemistry* Can someone explain to me how glycolysis is related to gluconeogenesis, and glycogenolysus? I’m having a difficult time putting together everything. Also, under what circumstances would our body choose one process over the other?? Basically, if someone could explajn the big picture! Thank you :)
please explain in details. thanks 1. What is a defibrillator? And how does it work? Explain in detail. ( explain it in a minimum of 3 to 4 paragraphs in details) 2. What is the Resistors for human skin? Explain in details 3. How long can you apply Electric currents to the human body? Explain in details 4. Why can we only apply electric currents for a short time in the human body? Explain
Can someone please explain to me, why the current affects the x ray image contrast and the density of the x ray image? Also then again why would does the voltage affect these contrast and density. Would they affect the x ray image in any other ways And also what specific factors would you use these for in medical imaging using x rays - e.g. mammography, imaging of the lungs, please don't just state what, but explain why as well?
