What is Ultrasound?
Nature ofUltrasound
• Medicaldefinitionof sound
“Soundis mechanicalenergytransmittedby
pressurewavein a materialmedium”
Frequency
Frequency: Numberof cycleoccurringper second
(Hertz:1cycle persecond)
f = C / λ (sound speed/wavelength)
Period: The timeit takes to complete1 cycle(P=1/f)
Wavelength: The wavelengthis the distancebetween 2 peaks on
cycle(λ=c/f)c : speed of soundin medium
Amplitude: differencebetween baselineand maximumamplitude
Frequency Wavelength
(MHz) (mm)
1.0 1.54
2.0 0.77
3.0 0.51
5.0 0.30
7.5 0.20
10 0.15
Sound Speed
Sound has a constantspeed in each medium.
Air : 330 m/s
fat :1460 m/s
Mercury : 1450 m/s
Water : 1480 m/s
Soft tissue : 1540 m/s
Muscle : 1600 m/s
Lead :2400 m/s
1. Frequency
(high frequency occur more scattering)
2. Scatter density
3. Size of scatter
4. Acoustic Impedance
: acoustic mismatch of
the scattering medium
