Advances in Ultrasound Imaging Techniques and Applications A Comprehensive Review
Ultrasound imaging, a widely used medical diagnostic tool, has witnessed significant advancements over the years, leading to enhanced
imaging capabilities and broader applications. This research article presents a comprehensive review of the latest developments in
ultrasound technology and its diverse applications. We explore various ultrasound imaging techniques, including 2D, 3D, and Doppler
ultrasound, and delve into the emerging fields of elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound. Furthermore, this review discusses
the potential role of artificial intelligence in ultrasound image analysis and its impact on diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. The article
also highlights the recent strides in point-of-care ultrasound and its transformative effects on bedside patient care. Overall, this paper
provides valuable insights into the current state of ultrasound imaging and its future prospects.
