In ultrasound imaging, air appears as a distinct, hyperechoic (bright) area due to its low density and high acoustic impedance compared to surrounding tissues. This results in strong reflection of the ultrasound waves, creating a shadowing effect behind the air-filled structures. Consequently, ultrasound cannot penetrate air effectively, making it challenging to visualize deeper structures beyond air-filled spaces, such as the lungs or gastrointestinal tract.

What to look for on a ultrasound scan for a boy?
An ultrasound tech will look for a penis or testicles when checking an ultrasound scan for a body. These parts of the anatomy make themselves very apparent on a scan in males.
Can for ultrasound wave travel long distance in air?
No, ultrasound waves cannot travel long distances in air due to the high attenuation of the waves caused by air. The waves lose energy quickly as they travel through air, limiting the distance they can travel effectively. Additionally, scattering and absorption of ultrasound waves in air further reduce their ability to propagate over long distances.
What makes it a 4D ultrasound?
time.A 4D ultrasound is simply a 3D ultrasound that gets updated very rapidly making it look more like a live ultrasound than a static picture. The fourth dimension is time.

ultrasounds cannot show air, which is what the bowel contains
Is ultrasound a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Sound, at least in gases like air, can only propagate as a longitudinal wave.
