What Is Ultrasound?
Sonography, another name for ultrasound, is a type of medical imaging that produces finely detailed images of the inside of the body using high-frequency sound waves. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, which use ionizing radiation, ultrasound uses sound waves that are harmless and non-invasive.
A transducer, a small handheld device, is applied to the skin over the area of interest during an ultrasound examination. Sound waves are emitted by the transducer, which records the echoes returned from the body’s tissues and organs. A computer subsequently processes these echoes to produce real-time images that can be seen on a monitor.
Ultrasound can be used to visualize various parts of the body, including organs such as the heart, liver, kidneys, and reproductive organs, as well as muscles, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. It is commonly used for diagnostic purposes to assess the structure, size, and function of internal organs, detect abnormalities, and aid in the diagnosis of various medical conditions.
