Therapeutic Ultrasound – How Effective Is It in Overuse Running Injuries Therapeutic ultrasound (US) is a process similar to conventional ultrasound‚ in terms of its basic functionality. During a non-therapeutic US‚ a device emits and receives inaudible sound waves (usually in the range of 700‚000 to 3‚300‚000 Hz‚ or oscillations per second). These waves usually produce an image on-screen for a radiologist in order to determine internal body organs and functionality status; however‚ in therapeutic

CHAPTER 1 Graphs are used to study the relationship between 2 things so you can see what the relationship is. Unrelated: 2 items that are not associated. Ex. Hair color is unrelated to shoe size Directly related/proportional: 2 items that are associated such that when one item increases‚ the other increases. The graph of 2 directly related items extends from lower left to upper right. Ex. Clothing size is directly related to one’s weight. Related/ proportional: Is a relationship but can’t

X-rays and Ultrasound: X-rays and ultrasound are two different modalities used for different things‚ so an ultrasound can do some things an X ray cannot‚ and vice versa‚ and so this makes them very difficult to directly compare. Ultrasound: Above: An ultrasound machine. Ultrasound is the use of energy generated by sound waves of 20‚000 or more vibrations per second. Ultrasounds are generated by a device called a transducer. Bearing in mind that sound is a mechanical energy‚ the transducer

question is HIFU. HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound. According to wikipedia‚ HIFU is “similar to using a magnifying glass to focus sunlight. Focused ultrasound uses an acoustic lens to concentrate multiple intersecting beams of ultrasound on a target. Each individual beam passes through tissue with little effect but at the focal point where the beams converge‚ the energy can have useful thermal or mechanical effects.”

An ultrasound technician conducts sonograms to help physicians diagnose and screen medical conditions. Now‚ when most people say they want to be an ultrasound technician they automatically think they’re going to be giving sonograms of unborn babies; but in reality sonographers take sonograms of all your body’s organs

To begin with what gave me the extra push on deciding this particular career path as a Ultrasound Technologist was attending my mothers pregnancy ultrasound appointments and the excitement we would receive when the sonographer would demonstrate to us on the screen my little brothers face‚ arms and legs.

Ultrasound imaging should be performed professionally and only when clinically pointed out to decrease fetal contact risk using the keeping acoustic output levels As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) principle. Ultrasonography consist of the use of sound waves and is not a form of ionizing radiation. There have been no news of recognized conflicting fetal effects for diagnostic ultrasonography measures‚ as well as duplex Doppler imaging.

I really enjoy the process of life like how a fetus turns into a full develop baby. As I said before I am doing a project with jobs I am interested in. I would love to job shadow in your establishment with any ultrasound technicians. The date I recommend will be on October 11th any time will be fine

As kids‚ my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods. "The woods" was our part-time address‚ destination‚ purpose‚ and excuse. If I went to a friend’s house and found him not at home‚ his mother might say‚ "Oh‚ he’s out in the woods‚" with a tone of airy acceptance. It’s similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone I’m looking for is on the golf course or at the hairdresser’s or at the gym‚ or even "away from his desk."
