Physics of Ultrasound and Image Optimisation

NameWorld Continuing Education Alliance
Activity TitlePhysics of Ultrasound and Image Optimisation
DetailsThis session is an introduction to basic ultrasound physics and an explanation of how to optimise images. Objectives By the end of this session you will be able to: • Describe the physical properties of sound waves and what happens to them as they pass through body tissue • Comprehend how a simple ultrasonic transducer works and how real-time echocardiographic images are created • Appreciate how imaging depth, gain and focus influence the quality of echo imaging and how to optimise these images
