What (who) is ultrasonography - definition

SOUND WAVES WITH FREQUENCIES ABOVE THE HUMAN HEARING RANGE
Ultrasonic; Ultrasonography; Ultrasonics; Industrial ultrasonography; Ultrasounds; From Sound to Image; Ultrsound; Ultra sound; Ultrasonic wave; Biomedical ultrasonic; Ultrasound CT; Ultra-sonic; Ultra-sound; Ultrasonic time-domain reflectometry; Endobronchial ultrasound
  • Head of a fetus, aged 29 weeks, in a "[[3D ultrasound]]"
  • An ultrasonic examination
  • Bats use ultrasounds to navigate in the darkness.
  • Ultrasound image (sonogram)  of a fetus in the womb, viewed at 12 weeks of pregnancy (bidimensional scan)
  • Sonogram]] of a fetus at 14 weeks (profile)
  • Fetal ultrasound
  • Galton whistle, one of the first devices to produce ultrasound
  • A [[dog whistle]], which emits sound in the ultrasonic range, used to train dogs and other animals
  • Schematic of bench and industrial-scale ultrasonic liquid processors
  • Principle of an active sonar
  • spline]] cracking
  •  Principle of flaw detection with ultrasound. A void in the solid material reflects some energy back to the transducer, which is detected and displayed.
  • Approximate frequency ranges corresponding to ultrasound, with rough guide of some applications

ultrasonography         
[??ltr?s?'n?gr?fi]
¦ noun Medicine a technique using echoes of ultrasound pulses to delineate objects or areas of different density in the body.
Derivatives
ultrasonographic adjective
Vaginal ultrasonography         
  • Transvaginal ultrasonography procedure
TYPE OF MEDICAL ULTRASONOGRAPHY
Transvaginal ultrasound; Transvaginal ultrasonography; Vaginal ultrasound; Vaginal transducer; Transvaginal sonography; Ultrasound done via the vagina
Vaginal ultrasonography is a medical ultrasonography that applies an ultrasound transducer (or "probe") in the vagina to visualize organs within the pelvic cavity. It is also called transvaginal ultrasonography because the ultrasound waves go across the vaginal wall to study tissues beyond it.
Ultrasonography of deep vein thrombosis         
  • [[Doppler ultrasonography]] showing absence of flow and hyperechogenic content in deep vein thrombosis of the [[subsartorial vein]].
  • Coronal plane, seen from medial side of lower leg, showing thrombosis of the [[fibular vein]]s, with hyperechoic content and only marginal blood flow.
Ultrasonography in deep ven thrombosis; Ultrasonography of deep venous thrombosis; Ultrasonography for deep venous thrombosis; Ultrasonography for deep vein thrombosis; Ultrasound of deep vein thrombosis; Ultrasonography for suspected deep vein thrombosis
Ultrasonography in suspected deep vein thrombosis focuses primarily on the femoral vein and the popliteal vein, because thrombi in these veins are associated with the greatest risk of harmful pulmonary embolism.

Wikipedia

Ultrasound

Ultrasound is sound with frequencies greater than 20 kilohertz. This frequency is the approximate upper audible limit of human hearing in healthy young adults. The physical principles of acoustic waves apply to any frequency range, including ultrasound. Ultrasonic devices operate with frequencies from 20 kHz up to several gigahertz.

Ultrasound is used in many different fields. Ultrasonic devices are used to detect objects and measure distances. Ultrasound imaging or sonography is often used in medicine. In the nondestructive testing of products and structures, ultrasound is used to detect invisible flaws. Industrially, ultrasound is used for cleaning, mixing, and accelerating chemical processes. Animals such as bats and porpoises use ultrasound for locating prey and obstacles.

Examples of use of ultrasonography
1. Doctors claim the growing practice of "boutique ultrasonography" could put unborn babies at risk.
2. The Clinics Department is equipped with equipment necessary for diagnosis and treatment such as X–ray, ultrasonography, ECG and the biochemistry, haematology and microbiology laboratories.
