Sounds travel at different speeds through materials of different density. This sound speed differential is translated to different light intensities on a monitor screen displaying an image. This requires a computer and many, many algorithms and lines of code.
ADDED: The first statement is quite correct but the primary measurement is of the time between pulse transmission and echo return. The mathematics of the signal-processing that produces the image is indeed formidable!
Ultrasound pictures are a fantastic advancement in technology. One practical application of ultrasound is in the non-invasive monitoring of fetal development in pregnant women.

The definition of Ultrasound is very short wavelengths of sound used in a similar way to x-rays. The reason that ultrasound is used is the fact that sound does can be used for getting moving pictures of internal bits of the body that x-rays can show as accurately
Ultrasound is safe as it does not use radiation such as traditional xrays do. X-rays cannot be done because can cause damage to the fetus. However, ultrasound uses ultrasonic waves that are not harmful and can produce very clear pictures of a developig fetus.

Ultrasound is sound with a frequency higher than the upper limit of human hearing. It can be directed inside an object and the reflected waves analyzed to produce an image. The most well known application of this technique is its use in sonography to produce pictures of fetuses in the human womb.
Ultrasound sound waves
not hardly . that's something u get the hospital .. very stupid ? .. There are actually websites that will make fake ultrasound pictures, with a persons' personal details on it, Google it,, it can be done!!
The advantages of getting 4D ultrasound pictures is that you will find out the gender of your baby, according to Wiki. A dedicated agent on the official website would be happy to answer further questions in the future.
A duplex ultrasonography studies the circulation of blood through the arteries and veins. It combines the traditional ultrasound, which produce sound waves that bounce off blood vessels to create pictures and the doppler ultrasound, which records sound waves reflecting off moving objects such as the blood.
No, ultrasound is a technique used to produce an image of the fetus.
