Looking into you: Ultrasound Mary Lou Dee
TODAY I WILL BE DISCUSSING… • How Ultrasound Works • Types of Ultrasound • Beneficial aspects of Ultrasound
HOW ULTRASOUND WORKS • Motion of molecules is imperative • Transducer placed on area of observation • Sound waves ejected • Impedances received and analyzed • Image is created
TYPES OF ULTRASOUND • Doppler Ultrasounds: Color Doppler, Power Doppler, and Spectral Doppler • Basic and Transvaginal Ultrasounds • 3-D Ultrasound
DOPPLER ULTRASOUNDS LEFT: COLOR DOPPLER MIDDLE: POWER DOPPLER RIGHT: SPECTRAL DOPPLER
BASIC AND TRANSVAGINAL ULTRASOUNDS LEFT: ULTRASOUND MIDDLE: COUPLE WITH THEIR FIRST ULTRASOUND RIGHT: ACTUAL ULTRASOUND
3-D ULTRASOUNDS LEFT: TWINS 3-D ULTRASOUND RIGHT: CHILDS 3-D ULTRASOUND VS REALITY
BENEFICAL ASPECTS OF ULTRASOUND • Noninvasive and no needles required • When invasive used as a guidance tool for surgeries • Inexpensive • Widely available
CONCLUSION • We reviewed: How Ultrasound Works, Types of Ultrasound, and the Beneficial aspects of Ultrasound • Without Ultrasound, the world would be a completely different place
