ultrasound physics online: Physical Principles of Medical Ultrasonics C. R. Hill, J. C. Bamber, G. R. ter Haar, 2005-08-05 The physical properties of ultrasound, particularly its highly directional beam behaviour, and its complex interactions with human tissues, have led to its becoming a vitally important tool in both investigative and interventional medicine, and one that still has much exciting potential. This new edition of a well-received book treats the phenomenon of ultrasound in the context of medical and biological applications, systematically discussing fundamental physical principles and concepts. Rather than focusing on earlier treatments, based largely on the simplifications of geometrical acoustics, this book examines concepts of wave acoustics, introducing them in the very first chapter. Practical implications of these concepts are explored, first the generation and nature of acoustic fields, and then their formal descriptions and measurement. Real tissues attenuate and scatter ultrasound in ways that have interesting relationships to their physical chemistry, and the book includes coverage of these topics. Physical Principles of Medical Ultrasonics also includes critical accounts and discussions of the wide variety of diagnostic and investigative applications of ultrasound that are now becoming available in medicine and biology. The book also encompasses the biophysics of ultrasound, its practical applications to therapeutic and surgical objectives, and its implications in questions of hazards to both patient and operator. |

ultrasound physics online: Public Health, Public Health Education, and their Future Prospects Xuelei Ma, Hubing Shi, Yihui Du, Wenhao Cai, 2024-04-15 A number of studies have pointed out that currently, medical schools may have failed to supply self-directed lifelong learners and qualified healthcare workers. Therefore, in recent years, the medical teaching modes have been consistently reformed. The new generation of novel education modes such as Research-Based Learning (RBL), Problem-Based Learning PBL), Team-Based Learning (TBL) have the characteristics of universality, interactivity, and promptness, which empower instructors and students to learn and grow together. Moreover, the reform of medical teaching modes has been significantly facilitated in the COVID19 era due to public’s rising awareness of public health and more obviously, pandemic prevention policies such as travel restrictions. For instance, many countries have launched remote teaching mode in order to provide consistent education service with high quality. These novel teaching modes can provide amelioration to the traditional education modes and may lead the education system to another prosperity. |
