Ultrasound is absolutely safe. It uses mechanical waves, e.g. sound waves, to detect depth and shape of internal figures. The reflection of the waves back to the sensor show the image according to the strength of the wave upon its return.
Ultrasound waves are commonly used in technology and medicine. In technology, ultrasound waves are used in various applications such as imaging, non-destructive testing, and distance sensing. In medicine, ultrasound waves are used for diagnostic imaging, therapeutic treatments, and monitoring fetal development during pregnancy.
Let's start with the obvious. Ultrasound is used in sonography- looking at human babies in the mother's womb. Ultrasound can be used to work out how old the baby is, determine its location, find the location of the placenta, determine the sex of the baby (male or female), check for heartbeat, check for normal fetal growth and check for any abnormalities. Note that the results from an ultrasound are occasionally wrong. Some people are 'surprised' when they have a girl after the ultrasound told them that they would have a boy!In industry, ultrasound is used to determine how thick objects such as metals and plastic are.Ultrasound has been shown to work with antibiotics in killing bacterial cells.Bacteria, particularly those in sewage, can be disintegrated (killed) by using ultrasonic waves.Believe it or not, ultrasound can be used to clean teeth. Dental hygienists use ultrasound.
Ultrasonics are used in medicine for diagnostic imaging purposes, such as in ultrasound scans to visualize internal organs and monitor fetal development during pregnancy. It is also used in therapeutic applications, such as ultrasonic lithotripsy to break down kidney stones or in ultrasound-guided procedures for targeted treatments like tumor ablation.
Sonar is a system that uses sound waves to detect objects underwater, while ultrasound is a medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize internal organs and tissues in the body. Sonar is typically used in underwater navigation and communication, while ultrasound is used in medicine for diagnostic purposes.
No, humans cannot hear ultrasound frequencies.
Radiographers and radiologists, and scientists.
yes when you get an ULTRASOUND when your pregnant it use ultrasound waves to show the image.
yes
people use ultrasound technologies, such as sonar and ultrasound imaging to observe things that they cannot see directly.

They are known as Overtones. If they are beyond the range of human hearing, they are called ultrasound, or ultrasonic waves.
