2. Ultrasonic transducer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_transducer

   The transducer may be used in contact with the skin, as in fetal ultrasound imaging, or inserted into a body opening such as the rectum or vagina. Clinicians who perform ultrasound-guided procedures often use a probe positioning system to hold the ultrasonic transducer. [9] Compared to other medical imaging modalities, ultrasound has several ...

3. Doppler fetal monitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_fetal_monitor

   See media help. A Doppler fetal monitor, informally known as sonicaid (generic trademark), is a hand-held ultrasound transducer used to detect the fetal heartbeat for prenatal care. It uses the Doppler effect to provide an audible simulation of the heart beat. Some models also display the heart rate in beats per minute (BPM).

4. Terason - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terason

   Terason has shipped thousands of ultrasound systems to clinicians, hospitals, outpatient centers, and OEM partners since 2000. Terason is the market leader in ultrasound-guided venous intervention. Terason systems are routinely used in the fields of vascular surgery , interventional radiology , endocrinology and nephrology , cardiology ...

5. Medical ultrasound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_ultrasound

   Medical ultrasound includes diagnostic techniques (mainly imaging techniques) using ultrasound, as well as therapeutic applications of ultrasound. In diagnosis, it is used to create an image of internal body structures such as tendons, muscles, joints, blood vessels, and internal organs, to measure some characteristics (e.g., distances and velocities) or to generate an informative audible sound.

6. Laser ultrasonics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_ultrasonics

   Laser-ultrasonics uses lasers to generate and detect ultrasonic waves. [1] It is a non-contact technique used to measure materials thickness, detect flaws and carry out materials characterization. The basic components of a laser-ultrasonic system are a generation laser, a detection laser and a detector.

7. Ultrasonic testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_testing

   Ultrasonic testing (UT) is a family of non-destructive testing techniques based on the propagation of ultrasonic waves in the object or material tested. In most common UT applications, very short ultrasonic pulse waves with centre frequencies ranging from 0.1-15 MHz and occasionally up to 50 MHz, are transmitted into materials to detect ...

8. Abdominal ultrasonography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_ultrasonography

   Ultrasound probe (curvilinear type) is used for examination of superficial structures. Abdominal ultrasonography (also called abdominal ultrasound imaging or abdominal sonography) is a form of medical ultrasonography (medical application of ultrasound technology) to visualise abdominal anatomical structures. It uses transmission and reflection ...

9. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast-enhanced_ultrasound

   Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is the application of ultrasound contrast medium to traditional medical sonography. Ultrasound contrast agents rely on the different ways in which sound waves are reflected from interfaces between substances. This may be the surface of a small air bubble or a more complex structure.
