The difference between ultraviolet radiation and ultrasound is how they react when inside the body. Ultraviolet radiation attacks the cells and destroys cells that are harmful to the body. Ultrasound is merely a viewing device. Ultrasound is used to detect abnormalities in the body.
Ultrasound.
Difference is in their frequency, audible sound waves is between 12 Hz and 20,000 Hz, Ultrasound waves is any sound that has a frequency beyond the 20,000 Hz limit
sonar is used to detect big penises
Ulrasound is sound that is too high pitched for the human ear to hear. Ultrasonic is used to describe a sound as being an ultrasound. So, ultrasonic is an adjective, and ultrasound is a verb.
Infrasound has a frequency below normal hearing. Ultrasound waves have a frequency above the normal range of human hearing.
"A regular ultrasound is usually a permamently installed piece of medical equipment installed in a doctor's office or a medical provider's facility. A portable ultrasound is an ultrasound that can be carried from one location to another. Portable ultraounds can be particularly useful for treating large animals, for use in remote areas, or for diagnosing the homebound."
An ECG or EKG is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart. An echocardiogram is an ultrasound recording of the heart and its blood flow.
By seeing a doctor for a work-up. Often, they will need to do imaging (CT scan, ultrasound) for a definitive diagnosis.
Ultrasound is non-invasive and therefore lower risk. It is the use of high-frequency sound waves to visualize the interior of the body, typically to "see" the fetus. Amniocentesis is the extraction of amniotic fluid from the uterus via a big needle.
Home Ultrasound Therapy using a portable ultrasound machine can be very effective, just as effective as medical or professional ultrasound units. The difference between a chiropractor of doctor's ultrasound machine and a a home ultrasound machine is the doctor's ultrasound device utilizes continuous waves while a home version uses pulsed ultrasonic waves. This makes the home units safe for the general public, as continuous wave ultrasound can be dangerous if used in the wrong hands. When using a home ultrasound therapy massage machine, you will treat more frequently than if you were have ultrasound treatments at a physical therapist's office, but the results will be the same and in the long run, you will save a substantial amount of money.
An ultrasound is where they put gel on what ever part is going to be examined. Then they put a transducer or a wand along the gel. The ultrasound wand creates soundwaves, which in turn creates pictures on the screen. FOr x-rays you're place either against a machine, or under a machine where they will take some still pictures of you.
