What are the latest developments in ultrasound technology?

A transvaginal transducer and Doppler ultrasound uses enhanced sound waves to monitor subtle events. Color imaging is a recent development and 3-dimensional ultrasound is being researched.


What does an ultrasound scanner consist of?

the transducer and the data processing unit. The transducer both produces the sound waves that penetrate the body and receives the reflected echoes. Transducers are built around piezoelectric ceramic chips.


What is a micro phone?

A microphone is a transducer, that converts sound pressure waves into a varying electric signal. It can then be used to amplify, record or transmit sound to various other devices.


What is the difference between an ultrasound and a sonogram?

Ultrasound is the name of the proceedure; a Sonogram is the picture image produced by an ultrasound scan.Therapeutic ultrasoud uses low frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into the injured tissue during rehabilitation. This form of ultrasound creates heat using the lower frequencies, and the heat will help heal the injury. These sound waves are sent into the body using a transducer with no intent or way to capture any return they may have. Thus, no image is created. The sound waves are instead used and converted into heat energy.Medical ultrasound used for imaging purposes, including pregnancy, uses higher frequency sound waves. The transducer (the small wand-like structure used during the exam on the skin surface) creates these sound waves, sends them into the body, and when they bounce off of structures and return to the transducer they are captured and converted to mechanical energy and displayed on the monitor.


What is the name of the speaker that used Ultra sound?

You can't produce ultra-sound from a normal speaker. There would be no current to drive the coil due to the high frequency. It would have to be an ultrasound transducer.


What is Ultrasound Scan An ultrasound scan is a diagnostic imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the internal organs and tissues in the body. The sound waves are transmitted through a device called a transducer?

Yes. it’s called a probe.


How generates ultrasonic?

The sound,or sound waves, with frequency higher then human hearing span are called ultrasound. The healthy human ear can usualy hear up to 20kHz. Ultrasound is produced and detected using an ultrasound transducer. Ultrasound transducers are capable of sending an ultrasound and then the same transducer can detect the sound and convert it to an electrical signal to be diagnosed. To produce an ultrasound, a piezoelectric crystal has an alternating current applied across it. The piezoelectric crystal grows and shrinks depending on the voltage run through it. Running an alternating current through it causes it to vibrate at a high speed and to produce an ultrasound. This conversion of electrical energy to mechanical energy is known as the piezoelectric effect. The sound then bounces back off the object under investigation. The sound hits the piezoelectric crystal and then has the reverse effect - causing the mechanical energy produced from the sound vibrating the crystal to be converted into electrical energy. By measuring the time between when the sound was sent and received, the amplitude of the sound and the pitch of the sound, a computer can produce images, calculate depths and calculate speeds.


How sound is transmitted to speakers?

A microphone is a transducer that vibrates when in the presence of sound. These vibrations are converted into fluctuations in voltage that are transmitted to an amplifier. The amp then can increase the received voltage and transmit again via voltage fluctuations to a speaker which is also a transducer. In this case the electric signals vibrate a coil that in turn vibrates a membrane of some type creating sound waves by causing molecules in the air to vibrate.


What is the machine called that the doctors put up to a woman's abdomen to see the baby?

This is called an "ultrasound scanner" or "sonographic machine".The process is called "fetal sonography" or "obstetric sonography" but is generally just referred to as an ultrasound examination. The part of the machine that creates the sound waves is a piezoelectric transducer.


Which is better ultrasound or infra sound?

Ultrasound


What are the people that do baby ultrasounds?

Ultrasound imaging, or diagnostic sonography, is offered at all our Insight Medical Imagining locations through Alberta. Using non-invasive sound waves instead of radiation, Ultrasound imagining is used to assess body structures. A sonographer uses an ultrasound transducer to generate sound waves that detect echoes produced in the body. A computer interprets the echo and provided detailed images for the radiologist, who will review the results and send a detailed report to your doctor.


What is available in very small package to produce 100 KHZ to 400 KHZ sound?

You'll have to search the internet for "ultrasound transducer" and "ultrasonic transducer". Having just done that, we suspect you may have a tough time finding devices for that range of frequencies. It seems that the low-cost hobby devices operate in 40 to 80 KHz, while medical ultrasound imaging operates at a few MHz. We're curious as to why you've selected that particular range of frequencies. Good luck. No human or animal can hear that sound.
