| basic physics of ultrasound imaging: Understanding Physiology with Ultrasound L. Britt Wilson, Richard A. Hoppmann, Floyd E. Bell, Victor V. Rao, 2023-01-01 This book will be of interest to anyone who wants to use ultrasound to understand human physiology both in the clinical setting and the classroom. Tremendous advances in ultrasound technology have resulted in portable ultrasound systems that are easy to use, produce excellent images, and are affordable with quality hand-held and laptop-sized systems costing between $2K and $20K. These systems are now being used at the patient bedside or point of care by almost all medical and surgical specialities from primary care to orthopaedic surgery. These portable systems, especially the hand-held devices, are now being called the stethoscopes of the 21st century and will likely be used by many that are presently using stethoscopes including physicians, nurses, physician assistants, medics and other health professionals. Ultrasound began to be used in medical student education in the 1990s and is steadily becoming a common teaching tool for courses like anatomy and physiology. It is a visual, highly interactive learning tool that bridges the basic and clinical sciences and allows the learner to observe physiology principles in a living model. Ultrasound is also being used to teach other health professions students as well as undergraduate college students and high school students. Despite this interest there are no books available that provide an introduction to ultrasound and how it can be used to enhance the teaching of physiology. This e-book will do just that as well as offer “How to Scan” videos with example laboratory exercises to further engage learners. |

| basic physics of ultrasound imaging: Manual of Diagnostic Ultrasound World Health Organization, 2011 Forlagets beskrivelse: The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes ultrasound as an important medical diagnostic imaging technology. Manuals on ultrasound have been published by WHO since 2001, with the purpose of guiding health professionals on the safe and effective use of ultrasound. Among the diagnostic imaging technologies, ultrasound is the safer and least expensive, and technological advances are making it more user friendly and portable. Ultrasound has many uses, both diagnostic and therapeutic. For the purposes of this manual, only diagnostic ultrasound will be considered and further analysed. Basic physics of ultrasonographic imaging was released in 2005; since then, WHO has addressed the physics, safe use and different applications of ultrasound as an important diagnostic imaging tool. Since it is a non ionizing radiation technology, along with nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, the risks inherent to its use are lower than those presented by other diagnostic imaging technologies using ionizing radiation, such as the radiological technologies (X-rays and computed tomography scanners). |

| basic physics of ultrasound imaging: Duplex and Color Doppler Imaging of the Venous System Gerhard H. Mostbeck, 2012-12-06 The human venous system has, in the past, not alwaysattracted the same attention and interest from radiologists as the arterial system. Nevertheless, some of the pathologic conditions of the venous system are either frequently seen in daily practice such as varicosis of the lower extremity, or may relate to more severe and even life-threatening conditions,for instance deep venous thrombosis or liver venous pathology. However,enormous progress has been achieved during the past decade in the field of duplex and color Doppler imaging necessitating an update in our knowledge of these techniques. For both reasons, a volume specifically dealing with duplex and color Doppler ima ging of the venous system was considered an appropriate addition to the series Medical Radiology - Diagnostic Imaging. I would like to thank Prof. Mostbeck for his outstanding performance as the editor of this work. I would like to congratulate him and the many contributing authors, all renowned experts in the field, on their comprehensive coverage of the different topics, the up-to-date contents and the superb illustrations.
