Medical ultrasound

Hmmm, I wonder if there is a way to create an ultrasound machine that could create 3D images. Kazunori Baba, M.D., Ph.D. thought to himself one day. For a time Kazunori Baba has been realizing the benefits of such a machine. He thinks to himself, the benefits of a 3D ultrasound would be monumental, my expecting mothers could not only see their babies in real time, but as a doctor I would also be able to better see the babies and find any possible birth defects before the delivery. But will there be technology required to make this possible be too invasive on my patients? Will people be happy to see this type of medical advance? Even with some worry about the possible controversy of this new technology, the good outweighed the possible bad,…

Sound is just a pressure wave moving through a medium, a vibration. The first use of sound waves in medicine started with the SONAR technology that was utilized in the second world war to monitors surrounding sea of threats such as enemy submarines. This technology gave us eyes into places that we normally couldn’t see. In the medical field, this includes the very relevant ultrasound, using ultrasonic sound waves to create a digital image of the inside of the human body. This is the safest…

whereas ultrasound, a type of diagnostic image, is made from sound. Although digital images have an important purpose, ultrasound images are the more important revolution. For instance, ultrasound images…

Ultrasound and meat quality The quality of meat is based on aroma, taste, appearance, texture and juiciness. Texture is the most important factor in determining the quality of meat as per consumer behavior. There are several factors that affect texture such as the tenderness of the meat, juiciness and the degree of maturation. Tenderness The quality of meat as a result of using Traditional tenderising methods is poor. This includes mechanical, enzymatic and chemical…

Ultrasound is used in many ways in healthcare. It can be used to diagnose diseases such as deep vein thrombosis, gallstones, and of course, determining the gender of babies in the womb. While diagnostic sonography is very important, there is another use for ultrasound that is often overlooked. Therapeutic ultrasound is used in physical therapy and it is one of the most important tools for a physical therapist. In this paper I will discuss how therapeutic differs from diagnostic ultrasound, how…

Sound is an essential element that encircle our world, information can be gained through listening, which listening is a more advanced sense in that are fundamental to human. According to Helen Keller, hearing is the soul of knowledge and information of a high order. The disable of listening as if detached from the world, sound is also a factor built this nature, as Max Neuhaus mentioned sound has given context to a place. Sound is that important but in the same time too fundamental, the…

Once pups are weaned from their mother’s the frequency of mother-pup vocalizations drastically decreases. The decrease in calling, especially in the pup, is visible as the pup matures. Pups begin to call within minutes of birth, and spend more time calling during their first day of life than ever. Using time-budget analysis, the calling activity of fur seal pups was examined at the ages of 1, 3, 5, 9-12, and 30 days old, the number of calls were negatively correlated with age. This data can be…

space. Mechanical waves, unlike electromagnetic waves, require the presence of a material medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.” (Physics Classroom, 2016). “Ultrasound is acoustic (sound) energy in the form of waves having a frequency above the human hearing range.” (Margaret Rouse, 2006). Sound wave frequencies are measured in hertz. While humans can only hear about a maximum of approximately 20,000 hertz, insects can hear a high of about 50,000 hertz, and…

incapacitating anomalies in the hatchling since they didn't know why. Today, we will take care of these issues by utilizing ultrasound machine, we will begin to expound on the history and how this machine began to improvement by numerous researchers, and by what means can many specialists began to utilize this machine for some reasons to individuals and to spare their lives. Likewise, how does this machine got to be distinctly well known and the preferred standpoint and weakness of utilizing…

8. Overview of the Arduino Sketch 8.1 General Codes MediaTek labs states that an Arduino sketch “is a source code file representing the core controlling logic for the LinkIt ONE development board. It consists of two main structures: setup and loop” (MediaTek Labs, n.d.). In this section I will discuss what the above code do. First, LinkIt ONE initializes the Ubidots account, then the sensors, Wi-Fi or GPRS, the location and finally the serial port. To minimize battery consumption, I did not use…
