| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| which ultrasound technique creates anatomical images ? | sonography |
| which ultrasound technique evaluates blood flow? | doppler ultrasound |
| what is the normal audible range of human hearing? | 20Hz to 20,000 Hz |
| a sound greater than 20,000 HZ | ultrasound |
| a sound less than 20 Hz is called | infrasound |
| ultrasound imaging uses what technique | pulse-echo |
| what determines the depth of the image ? | time it takes the echi to return |
| one transmitted pulse creates one | scan line |
| True or false ( one pulse creates only one echo | false |
| which transducer produces a rectangular image | linear array |
| parallel scan lines indicates what transducer? | linear array |
| which transducer produces a pie shaped image | phased array |
| a common starting point indicates what transducer? | phased array |
| Linear transducer advantage | high frequency and high resolution |
| Linear transducer disadvantage | low penetration |
| Linear frequency | 7-12 mhz |
| phase array advantage | high penetration |
| phase array disadvantage | low resolution |
| phase array frequency | 2-4 mhz |
| curved convex transducer advantage | high penetration |
| curved convex transducer disavantage | low resolution |
| curved convex transducer frequency | 4-7 mhz |
| which transducer produces a curved-top image? | convex array |
| which transducer produces a flat top modified sector image? | vector array |
| which transducer produces a circular image? | annular array |
| the "B" in B-Mode stands for ? | brightness |
| which doppler displays a waveform? | spectral doppler |
| which doppler displays blood flow using color? | color doppler |
| which doppler is quantitative | spectral doppler |
| sound waves are what two types of waves | mechanical and longitudinal |
| which type of wave requires a medium | mechanical |
| how do particles move in longitudinal wave? | back and forth |
| what are the things that change as sound travels | acoustic variable |
| name the acoustic variables | density, pressure, particle vibration, temperature |
| Using echoes of ultrasound to create anatomic images is called | sonography |
| The audible range for sound frequency is | 20 Hz to 20,000 |
| Anything higher than 20Hz this is called | ultrasound |
| anything lower than 20,000 Hz is called | infrasound |
| to create images, the ultrasound must be _______, not continuous | pulsed |
| the string of echo information sent back from each single pulse | scan line |
| When these scan lines are all parallel, the resulting image is called _______. Which type of transducer produces such images? | rectangle,linear |
| When these lines all radiate out from a single starting point, the resulting image is called _____ _____. Which type of transducer produces such images? | sector image, phased array |
| A sector image with a curved top is produced by which type of transducer? | convex |
| A sector image with a flat top is produced by which type of transducer? | vector array |
| What type of transducer produces a “ring”-like image that goes around in a complete circle? | annular array |
| Which type of ultrasound process is used to detect direction and velocities of blood flow in the body? | doppler |
| what is a doppler ultrasound | detection and evaluation of blood flow and tissue motion |
| speed formula | c=f x Lambda |
