چکیده
ompetent performance of an ultrasound examination of any type is reliant on an understanding of the basic physical principles that govern the production of ultrasound waves and their interaction with biological tissues of differing densities and consistencies. It is also necessary to understand the basic concepts of how the ultrasound systems work and the concepts underlying their manipulation of echoes.

turn on the machine. Apply coupling gel. Start scanning. In the realm of the busy veterinary general practice, emergency clinic, or intensive care unit, that statement really sums up the basic use of ultrasound. Just as natural as it is for us to take the stethoscope from around our neck and place it on a patient’s thorax, so should be picking up the ultrasound probe and placing it on the patie...

The use of ultrasound is fundamental to the practice of urology. In order for urologists to best use this technology on behalf of their patients, they must have a thorough understanding of the physical principles of ultrasound. Understanding how to tune the equipment and to manipulate the transducer to achieve the best-quality image is crucial to the effective use of ultrasound. The technical s...
متن کاملMechanism of Mass-Transfer Enhancement in Textiles by Ultrasound
The intensification of wet textile processes, such as cleaning and dyeing, by application of ultrasound is well known. In these processes, mass transfer in the interyarn and intrayarn pores of the textile is the basic physical phenomenon. The results of experiments on textile cleaning, based on basic principles of acoustics and cavitation, coupled with analysis of the surface and cross section ...
